CHICAGO U. SEEKS THE KANSAS IDEA
Windy City Institution Likes Plan of "Mothers' and Fathers' Week
INVITATIONS ARE OUT
K. U. IN ITS WORKING CLOTHES
A member of the faculty committee in charge of the week at K. U. said this is his responsibility. Mothers' and Fathers' Week here is to show parents of students the University "with its working clothes on."
Parents Asked to Come and See Mount Oreadites in Their Working Clothes
An inquiry concerning the plans of the University of Kansas for Mothers' and Fathers' Week, which will begin next Monday, was received today by a committee in charge of plans for the week, from Jeneth B. Regent, secretary of the Woman's Ministry, and Council of the University of Chicago.
INVITATIONS ARE OUT
There has been much 'harmful criticism of the University,' continued this professor, "and we want to show the parents the falsity of this criticism. If there is any needed criticism, we want the parents to make it. We want to show them the school as it is, so they can seek what it is accomplishment, as it needs. No plans for a celebration have been made, but we want the parents of University students to be the guests of the University as she is for one week, and not of the University with her party clothes on."
Invitations for the week have been prepared, and may be obtained by students either at the office of the registrar, or at the office of the department of journalism. These invitations read:
K. U. IN ITS WORKING CLOTHES
The Council is planning a Mothers' and Fathers' Day for the University of Chicago some time next spring, according to the letter from the secretary-general of the Kansas plans. The day at the University of Chicago, however, will differ from the week at K. U. in that he will be interviewed with a celebration on the campus.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 4, 1916.
"The University of Kansas invites you to attend the University Mothers' and Fathers' Week, December 11 to 16, to see the regular work of the institution so that mothers and fathers of students or of prospective students may become acquainted with the University, its life, its democracy and its service to the state and to the young men and young women of the state."
The invitation is signed by Willard M. Glasco and Dorothy W. Cole, student members of the committee in charge, while at the bottom, under a parenthetical request to "See K. U. with its working clothes on," is space for the student to give a little personal touch to his invitation.
SOUR OWL DISINFECTED
The "dinfected" "Sour Owl" made its appearance at the Kansas-Missouri football game Thanksgiving Day, and was heartily received by the crowd. Attractively printed, and in high demand, it soon became "new Owl" is a decided improvement over the old scandal-monging newspaper of past years.
Former Scandal Sheet Appears in Magazine Form
The major portion of the magazine contains straight humorous matter and cartoons, all of them the work of Frank Oz. The editorial section includes matter on the mill tax, the "naughty rally," and the Owl's "new feathers." Appended at the last of the magazine is a newspaper supplement called "The Pepper Pot." In the personal stories which formerly were the only feature of the "Owl."
"I am very much pleased with the new 'Owl'. Chancellor Frank Strong said this morning. "There is a field here for a genuinely humorous publication of that nature, and I am glad to see that such a magazine is to be published hereafter. The initial number pressages success."
IMPROVED DIRECTORIES ARE
GIVEN TO STUDIES THIS YEAR
After weeks of waiting, the student directories have arrived and are being given out at the registrar's office. The directories are a decided improvement in several ways over those of last year. They are smaller in size and can be slipped into a coat pocket very easily. The material is easy to handle and can be fore. Besides the book of students, the little book contains a directory of sororities and fraternities and house chanerons.
No charge is being made for the directories, but students are asked to contribute a small sum to the Student Loan Fund.
SEEKS UNIVERSITY MAN FOR RELIGIOUS WORK
Dr. Stanton Olinger, student pastor of the Presbyterian church has received a letter from W. H. Crothers, special Presbyterian representative for candidate enlistment and college visitation, asking for a live young man to become lay assistant in a church in New York state at a salary under $25,000; the latter also states that other requests similar to this one have been received.
Dr. Olinger thinks it a little unusual for such a request to come to a state university and considers it good evidence that the University should have a course in Bible study. The position offers a good opening for advancement and has a better salary to work with than most teaching positions.
CHORAL UNION PROGRAM VARIED
Mrs. Blanche Trelease Sings the Solo Parts of Annual Concert Tuesday Night
The last rehearsal for the Choral Union concert, which is to be given in Fraser Chapel tomorrow night, will be held in the chapel this evening at 7:30 o'clock. The rehearsal is being performed to perfect the smallest details of tomorrows concert. The hundred singers will be grouped in the position they are to occupy on the platform; the accompanist will have her piano in the desired position; and everything will be as nearly as possible as possible in the chapel. Choral Union makes its 1916 debut with its annual December concert.
As usual, much interest has been shown in the Union's concert, and a crowd which will fill the chapel is expected at Fraser Hall tomorrow night. Tickets, which have been placed on sale at Bell Brothers Music Center, are available from the Registrar's Office on the Hill, have been selling rapidly, and everything seems to presage an unusually successful concert.
PROGRAM WILL BE VARIED
One thing which promises to make the program unusually good is the wide variety of the numbers the chorus will sing. Every kind of music, according to Director Arthur Hill, comes with its own set of numbers; and there is every sort of melody from the ridiculous to the sublime. Irish folk songs follow the sternest and most pompous of Russian music; and in between there are many more. Nevin's own "Daybreak", which will be one of the featured numbers.
"No one need feel that the program is 'highbrow,'" said Mr. Nevin this morning. "The concert will be a real challenge for you," he wrote; and I feel safe in saying that no matter what one's tastes are in music, something on tomorrow night's program will appeal to them. The program will be varied, and universal in their appeal."
SOLOIST FROM CHICAGO
Mrs. Blanche Trealease, the Chicago contratto who will sing several solos at the concert, will arrive in Lawrence tomorrow morning. "Mrs. Trealease is a singer of great ability, and she has met with considerable success in Chicago," said Mr. Nevin this morning. "Her interpretations are given with excellent judgment and finish. She is a woman with keen emotional sensitivity and graceful use, characteristic with green puffs." Mrs. Trealease will come to Lawrence especially for the concert tomorrow night.
The "date rule" will be off for the concert.
PROFESSOR GOLDSMITH TO MINNEAPOLIS MEETING
Professor Goldsmith, head of the department of architecture, is in Minneapolis as a delegate to the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture and will also be a delegate for the American Institute of Architects Chapter at Kansas City. Both of these conventions are to be held at Minneapolis. The Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture will convene December 5 and the American Institute of Architects December 6, 7, and 8.
Reports on the Committee of Chapters will be discussed by Professor Goldsmith at the latter convention. Some of the other reports that are to be made are on Town-Planning, Fire Protection, Competitions, Public Information, and Presentation of Natural Beavets and Historical Monuments in the United States. This report will include a report from the Old State House of Connecticut to the Cliff Zones of Arizona.
Miss Helen Dawson, c'16, who has been spending the past week at the Kappa house went to her home in Great Bend today.
Y. M. LEADERS TO MAKE REPORT
Harry L. Heinman and David R. Porter Here From Cleveland Convention
FULL SCHEDULE PLANNED
Plans for Conducting Religion Campaigns to be Discussed —Churches to Help
K. U. has been chosen as one of three universities in the United States in which to try out the plan formulated at the National Conference of church and Y. M. C. A. representatives in Cleveland. The conference on a plan of conference between church and Associations in cities in which both are found. Harry L. Heinzman and David R. Porter are coming to Lawrence Wednesday and Thursday to present the report. Joint meetings will be held in Lawrence between the churches and the heads of the Association for the purpose of discussing the Cleveland method.
While the men are here plans will be laid for an evangelistic campaign at the University similar to the Mott-Robins meetings of two years ago.
A. H. M. C.
A full schedule has been planned for the two days that the men are
HARRY L. HEINZMAN
here. Interviews will be conducted with the different Y. M. C. A. committees on the work that is being accomplished in the department of work and there will be a speech meeting with the cabinet to check up on their responsibility for the religious life of the school. A meeting with the board of directors will also be held.
The personal interviews, which were of such importance in the Mott-Robins meetings, will be a special feature of the visit.
Happy Heinzman, who is a member of the International Committee of Student Work is well known and very popular at K. U. He was the leading figure of the recent Baker meetings.
An address to the men of the University is planned for Wednesday night from seven to eight at Myers College, where 40% of the regular Tuesday night meeting
David Porter is chairman of the International Executive Committee and has taken the place of John R. Berry, Y. E. M. C. A. work in this country.
That's what it's going to cost you to get into the Journalists party Saturday night in the gymnasium. And its going to be a party as origi-
linal as possible, as the Journalism Cabaret supper-dance staged early in the fall.
Six bits and some kind of a news paper.
Haley himself, a violin and a saxophone will be on hand to furnish the music for the occasion, and the piano will promptly at eight-thirty o'clock.

ANY MONEY, OLD PAPERS?
Fair tonight and Tuesday, colder Tuesday.
The management of the party has not stated definitively what the idea is for bringing the newspaper, but the committee is firm in the express-statement decision that a newspaper is fully as essential as six-bits for admission.
Mr. and Mrs. John S. Dean, 1839 Western Avenue, Topeka announces the marriage of their daughter, Mary, to Mr. A. Nevin Alt. The ceremony took place at the home of the bride's parents on Thanksgiving Day. Mrs. Alt is a former K. U. student, and a graduate of Oberlin College. She was a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority.

WELCOME SLOGAN WAS GOOD—BUT
Victory Was Also Provided For Entertainment of Missouri
ALTERNATE RIVAL COLORS
Traffic Policeman Made Attempts to Regulate Throngs In Down-town Streets
The "Welcome Missouri to all but Victory" slogan adopted by Kansas rooters overstepped its bounds and became "Welcome Missouri and take Victory too." After expending every effort for the entertainment of its worthy guests from the Tiger's air, the Jayhawk ungrudgingly gave up 13 of its most prized feathers as a parting gift.
The Tiger's gold and black and the Jayhawk's crimson and blue flaunted over the downtown streets, on automobiles, and on homes. The rooters are the ones who wear or personal adornment and wore the colors 'after his own heart.'
From eight o'clock Thursday morning until nine o'clock at night the eager wearers of the crimson and the blue and of the gold and black clothing except for the time in which the landmark —and lost Hotels, railway stations and trains were crowded as never before. Automobiles rushed over the streets with little regard for traffic regulations, to the consternation of the seven traffic policemen who were caught in the order in spite of the riotious spirit of the day and to guide motor cars through the congestion.
The aid-de-camp of all weighed contests, Enthusiastia, was present at McCook field but, in keeping with the tradition and lacking in spontaneity. No brilliant plays or meteoric runs roused the roots to outbursts of wild cheering but every eye followed the methodical progression of the game, every team that has its own team, and every lusty lung responded to the calls for aplause.
The trees and the hills around the stadium accommodated the overflow of water.

ents for a perfect day
mixed just right.
And Kansas lost.
MANY GRAFTS NAB PURSE
Holiday Gives Chance to Swell
Pocketbooks
"Graphs," said a university student the day of the K. U.-Missouri game, "may work all right when they are used in mathematics, but grafts sure go hard on my pocketbook." He complained that he had paid twenty cents for a breakfast of hot cakes when always before he had eaten the same quantity and quality for the small sum of a dime.
But not on hot cakes alone was the price advanced on Thanksgiving Day. Taking advantage of the large holiday crowd, the restaurants raised prices on regular meals from twenty-five cents to more than boys moved through the crowd, which thronged. Massachusetts street, before the game, selling arm bands and pennants for twenty-five cents while the stores which had them in stock sold them of fifteen cents. Large white and yellow mums burgled at the store, selling five and thirty-five cents sold on the street for fifty and seventy-five cents.
Those who played pool or billiards at the pool hall, because it was a festival day, paid double price for the use of a cue. Even at the game room, there were little grafts. Small pasteboard metaphors, which could be swallowed by the user if care was not taken, sold for the insignificant sum of ten cents yet the ten store houses had them their toy department for five cents.
Then there were the peanut venders who to be sure sold peanuts at the usual price of five cents a sack. However, on such an important occasion they deemed it best, fearing that they would not be enough peanuts to go around, to sell the sack and throw a few peanuts in for good measure.
Programs usually give away before the game brought fifteen cents to the cars of male owners who park their cars near the entrance and are forced to pay for the privilege.
"Pass the good coaching along." will be the slogan of some ten or twelve football men this week. They will be coaching the class teams, three or four to the team. Many of them deal with the most deal of pleasure to the time when they will be able to make the other fellow do the work.

thirty-third game," said Mr. Helmers. "They were mingling with the crowd in front of the Eldridge. "I started when I was pretty young and have kept it up. The first game I saw was in 1894. Kansas won that year and has been keeping it up quite regularly, having thirteen games, lost five, and tied four.
"The trip to Columbia is worse than an ocean voyage," said Mr. Helmers, "But I have gone to all the games except the first ones."
KANSAS QUARTET MAY MAKE M. V.
Lindsey, Shinn, Nielsen, and Vernson Stand Good Chance of Placing
Lindsey, Shinn, Nielsen and Vernon are the four men that Kansas is hoping to see make the All Valley Football team. These men it is generalized as being the only ones familiar with the shape of making the nick of the valley team.
Lindsey has great competition in Dobson of Nebraska for the backfield. However it is believed that Lindsey will captain, and perhaps win the captainship.
SHINN AGAINST VALLEY'S BEST
SHINN AGAINST VALLEY'S BEST
Shinn, K. U's pick for All Valley
end will run up against some of the
best ends the valley has ever produced,
Jones, of Ames, and also Ridgid.
He is the only winner for the right wing position.
Shinn, however, is playing great ball,
and certainly deserves the place.
Nielsen's strongest opponent for the position at full back is Eddie Wells of the Kansas Aggies. Both are excellent players, speedy, and use head work when in the game. Nielsen was a bit slow rounding into form but is now in prime condition and well worth naming.
VERNSON STANDS GOOD CHANCE
Vernson does not have as keen competition as the other three K. U. men. He is not in a position to do a lot of star playing but for a good steady, reliable guard, Vernson is a player that can be depended on.
The late start that the K. U. team had in the fall has cut down the personal percentage of the players. If they finished first, we were they finished the season doubtless a great many more men would make the All Valley mythical eleven.
HARDEST JOB EVER
This year the job of picking the all star team will be difficult. Never before in the history of the valley have so many teams been running neck and neck for the championship. It will be hard to pick a star team from the Kansas, Nebraska, Ames, and Aggie aggregations.
CAFE'S WORKED OVERTIME
Every Eating Place Crowded All Day Thanksgiving
Almost every eating place in the city made special provision for extra help and facilities for serving the hungry crowd, and did a rushing business from the time the first Missouri special arrived in the morning until the departure of the last train at night.
That the thousands of visitors here for the game Thanksgiving day did not leave town hungry was due to the foresight and careful preparation by the numerous hotels, restaurants, and boarding club keepers.
The fact that Ecke's furnishing store had rented out almost every available dish and bed to the different fraternities and sororites gives the institution made by these organizations to entertain their share of the guests.
The peanut and popcorn venders were kept busy tossing up sacks of the confection and catching the nickels at the game.
All candidates for class football report at Hamilton Field as early as possible each day. Preliminary games between the freshmen and sophomores, juniors and seniors will be held Monday, December 11. The final game will be played Thursday, December 14. The coaches for the teams are as follows: Freshman, Reid, Shim, Miner, Frost, Nielsen, Woodward, Foster; Sophomores, Wilson, M. Rubble, Mull, Fast, Fiske; Juniors, Lindsey, Heath, Burton, Vernson, Smith, Seniors, Martin, Kabler, Woody, Todd, Pringle, Cowgill (Signed) Coach Olcott.
MISSOURI'S YEAR FOR CELEBRATION
Tigers Outcharged Kansas In Turkey Day Classics and Emerged Victorious
FUMBLED PUNTS COSTLY
Foster's Second Bungle Gave Missouri Her Chance to Score
to Score
On a fast field and 'neath a clear sky, the Kansas Jahayk met the Missouri Tiger Thanksgiving Day, and went down in defeat before him. The Jungle Beast was too much for the Kansas bird.
A fast charging line which carried the heavier Kansans off their feet, and a speedy quartet of backs who sifted through the line for consistent gains spelled Victory for Missouri. Started with the Kansans, the souriers outplayed Kansas from the start, aided by fortunate and costly Jayhawker fumbles.
COULDN'T HANDLE PUNTS "Handling of punts was the thing on which the game hinged," says Coach Herman Olcott. "Lindsey puntunately, well, but the Tigers rebounded with great ability. In the latter part of the game, Missouri outgenerated and outcharged the Kansans. Our boys were simply unable to stop the advances of their speedy backfield."
Fumbles by both teams were costly; but Missouri was lucky enough to recover when her men spilled the pigskin. A fumble by Foster early in the first quarter gave the Tigers the ball and an opportunity to score; and from that time on Kansas was forced to play a defensive game.
LAST CHANCE TO SCORE
Once, in the third quarter, it seemed that the Jayhawkers would make a touchdown; and every spectator held his breath in suspense. Hamilton kicked off to Nielsen<sup>1</sup>, who returned twenty. After three plunges which hit the fence, Jayhawker Lindsey kicked the ball forty yards, and Stankowski, of Missouri, caught it on his own twenty-five yard line. He fumbled it, however, and three Kansas players, who had outraced the ball down the field, dived for it. And they were able to score, the Missouri goal, those three Jayhawkers failed to secure the pigkin—and Captain Lansing, of Missouri, fell on it and recovered. After that it was all over for Kansas, and from the time of the punt at the final whistle of the game, the Kansas goal for a second touchdown, the game was all Missouri's.
First period - Missouri won the toss and chose to defend the west goal, with a strong southwest wind in their favor. Lindsay's kick of the ball was blocked by Preston. McMillan lost five yards. Wilder's fumble was recovered by Stankowski. Wilder kicked to the 50-yard line. Woodward made four yard lines on a line plunge off tackle. Foster on another off tackle play gained two yards. A double pass to Shinn failed. The ball crossed the midfield. Ball. Missoula's ball in the middle of the field. Pittam made two yards. Kansas penalized five yards. Stankowski added three yards and Rider added two more on an off tackle play. A pass, Pittam to Stankowski, failed. The ball crossed the woodward ward who fumbled the ball. Missouri recovered the ball on Kansas' 35-yard line.
Rider made five yards and the Kansas line held on the next play. McMillan went through center for five yards. The ball was on Kansas' 5-yard line. A line plunge made one yard. Collins went in for Pittam. Stankowski made one yard on a line plunge. The Kansas line held. On the third down, Kansas attempted place kicking from the 15-yard line which went wild, the ball going over the Kansas line for a touchback. Lindsey played safe and puned fifty-tee. Stankowski, who returned it five yards, lost two yards on an end run but Rider gained three yards on a plunge. Wilder punted forty yards to Lindsey, who returned the ball sixty yards to Stankowski, who fumbled the kick but recovered with a 5-yard loss.
Stankowski was forced to take time out because of the tackling of the Kansas ends. A line plunge gained a yard and Wilder gained five yards. Wilder's kick was blocked by Burton, but Wilder recovered the ball on Mismaster's 2-yard line. Wilder punted to Lindsey for a curve, 40-yard line. Plunges put the ball in 20-yard line. Lindsey gained four yards, but Kansas was penalized fifteen yards for holding, placing the ball in the middle of the field.
After a series of plunges Wood-ward attempted a place kick from the 46-yard line but it fell short by inches. The period ended with the ball on the Kansas 15-yard line.
Score: Kansas 0, Missouri 0.
Second period—Collin's and Rider,

WE'RE PROUD OF 'EM
All K. U, and all Kansas is proud of the men who battled with the Missouri Tigers on McCook field last Thursday—proud of them even though the victory did go to the rivals—because the men were doing their best for their alma mater and fought their hardest to uphold the honor of the Crimson and the Blue.
We offer no alibis. Missouri won the game and won it fairly. But while the Tigers outplayed the Jayhawkers Thanksgiving Day we do not grant the Missourians the better team. They could not have beaten the fighting machine that inflicted defeat on Nebraska ten days before. But that does not erase the record of the defeat last Thursday.
To see a repetition of the season of 1909, when Kansas won from Nebraska and then lost to Missouri was a hard blow to Kansas followers. But all took the defeat like good sports. They dolf their hats to the boys who played their best and offer no regrets.
Kansas is not only proud of her team and the remarkable showing made this year, which is by far the best in many years; she is proud of her coaches. To Coaches Olcott and Clark the University owes much and holds them in the highest respect.
So let's join Coach Olcott in his football motto, "Go the Kansas."
In view of the fine showing of this year's team over last year's eleven, the abundance of good material on this year's freshman team and a continuation of the Olcett-Clark coaching regime next year, the prospects look fine.
"Now that winter is approaching," says a certain freshman, "and we have respite from the familiar 'Swat the Fly,' we might turn our attention to getting rid of the eternal 'Yaaka Hula Hickey Dula.'"
THE MOB, THE MOB
Mob spirit is a characteristic of the human race in general. In students in particular it shows no sign of becoming extinct. Let someone exhibit a paddle on the Hill, and within three minute scores of sticks are in evidence. Let a crowd start a rally, especially a naughty rally, and a following springs up from all sides. Let someone suggest that studies be "ditched" for a trip to Lee's or to Brick's, and it takes real character to resist.
Again note the flow of students among boarding clubs. When a few leave a club, the rest will follow like sheep; when a club gains in membership, it gains rapidly. Then take dates! let a girl have a few dates at the beginning of the college year, and she is assured of social success throughout the term. Let her pass the first two or three weeks with no dates, and she is assured of an excellent opportunity to accumulate a
It is mob spirit pure and simple, from the student body down to the herd of stamped cattle.

The threatened return of the waltz and two-step will mark the Waterloo of the mediocre dancer.
KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN
There are many good things and so many new things right at hand that we fail to see because we do not keep our eyes open. We complain how dull and uninteresting a place or thing may be, ye when someone hits upon a new idea, or sees a new possibility in an old theme, we wonder why we did not think of it ourselves.
We have simply closed our eyes to the outside world. We have been so intent on our own affairs and troubles that we have failed to catch the broader things of life.
So let us keep our eyes open. Let us learn to observe and interest ourselves in the real things that are everywhere about us. It is never the Closed Eye that achieves success by thinking of the new thing first.
ON WITH THE PADDLE
Once upon a time there was a man named Plato who conceived the idea that all men of the upper class were created equal. Natural enough, isn't it? Plato should have made his house, eat from a common table, enjoy common property, have wives and children in common, and think common thoughts. Thus one of the wisest men of history advanced one of the most foolish ideas, simply to believe that man did not realize that variation is a necessity in every phase of life.
Once upon a time there were some ministers who conceived the idea that freshmen and upperclassmen were created equal. Sure! that's all right. So they said, "Let's have no more paddling." Thus it goes.
It is a mighty difficult thing to do away with tradition, however easy it is to talk about it. Paddling is like the movies, dancing, card playing, and every other form of amusement. You can't do away with it, but you can lead it into the proper channels where it will make for betterment rather than for evil. The small boy, in playing, has his hands away with it; as the hired man teaches the farmer's daughter; as the business man plays a joke on his friend; so the upper-classman paddles the freshman.
Of course playing, teasing, joking and paddling may all be carried too far and entail serious consequence, but as long as they are kept within proper bounds they are one of the greatest means for the promotion of friendship.
You can regulate paddling; but abolish it, never.

After all, it's a crime to think that a real red-blooded man enjoys a football game more being polite to a kid than playing with "whoopin' it up" for the boys.
Kansas rooting Thursday was the biggest argument yet for dateless football.
You know that's only natural.
Then there's the case of the professor who still holds his classes overtime. Why not reverse some of the stringent measures of the disciplinary committee on the consistent robbers student time called faculty members.
When a real man gets worked up to the pitch where he can help win a few football games he's got to have more than "PShaw!" or "Oh My!"
If you were to take a vote on any man in the University you would find that he would poll a few being a "sister."
He, and the other professor who has a monopoly on the only course on the Hill are about due for their annual investigation.

The efficient fire marshal does not spend all his time devising some means to put out fires after they have started. He devotes considerable time to preventing fires. Likewise the health officer does not assume that because he warned the public a year ago against typhoid fever he need not take steps to prevent the spread of the disease this year. In other words he must be more necessary and advisability of prevention instead of cure.
PREVENTION OR CURE?
To The Kansan:
CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be signed ae evidence of good, faithful but names will not be published without the writer's consent
This is the point against the University Senate in the action taken by that body following the recent naughty rally. The Senate knew the rally might occur and instead of taking steps to prevent it, they slept on the job. Therefore it seems rather far fetched for them to attempt to put their hand on the door, penalty which cuts off eight students from school and imposes upon their parents a financial loss of approximately two thousand dollars.
Unauthorized rallies absolutely must stop and the sane students realize that point full well. But when it is considered that there have been no mistakes in matters, that only a few of the guilty parties were caught, that the penalty enacted hits the parents and not the student, and finally that the disciplinary body was asleep at the post, it seems that the action is too drastic.
Sarcasm is a polite way of becoming angry. Rather than lose one's temper, one takes refuge in that cold, self-passed air, and with a few pointed remarks to make the observer realize he has been "cursed." A genuinely sarcastic person, cannot be unselfish. The unselfish person thinks of the other fellow, the sarcastic individual thinks only of the effect he is making. He never thinks of the other person, or how many good times he spoils. Never are the scornful welcome."
SARCASM
The best definition I can frame of an alumnus is that he is the devoted son of a good mother. A devoted son best serves a goodmother by living a high and good life, in the first place, and in the second place, by remembering her in his strength and in her weakness. Alma Mater, our institutional mother, unlike our dear mother of flesh and blood, is always needing strength. She is a creature of immortal youth and deathless function and endless needs. There is about her an eternal fecundity. Youth scolls play about her knees in ever-increasing numbers while great-grandchildren come on pilgrimages in her honor—Ohio State Monthly.

ECONOMY MARKS UNIVERSITY LIFE
Average K.U. Man Spends Forty Dollars a Month 'Tis Said
DAD PAYS SOME BILLS
Budget Also Shows Boys Are Charitable and Like The Movies
Basing the conclusion upon some two dozen interviews, the average man in the University of Kansas spends approximately three hundred and sixty dollars a year, or forty dollars a month
One man attended the University last year on less than two hundred dollars.
"I am spending a little more this year," he said. "I guess my tastes have become somewhat more extravagant. I am spending twenty-seven dollars a month up to date this year.
BOARD NOT EXPENSIVE
"IN BOUND NOT EXPENSIVE.
"In round figures," she added,
"board courses and dollar dollars a month, six, fees two, and incidentals two, Thirty dollars a month is all I want to go to school here."
Of course, this man took very little active part in the social life of the University, nor did he have to buy any clothes. Another man who was unusually active in social circles said:
"I spent about six hundred dollars last year. My necessary expenses ran around forty dollars, and my expenses for social purposes nearly twenty more. I bought a few clothes, but most of them came from home."
This man however, was not the rule among University men, either fraternity or non-fraternity. His prototype exists in all colleges and universities, in others. He is almost a negligible majority at the University of Kansas.
One man, apparently a fiend for the movies said he spent in the neighborhood of thirty dollars a year for picture shows.
"I like to go two or three times each week," he said, "and I don't like to go alone, so I usually find some friend or a girl to go with me. Then you always have to buy something at a soda fountain after the show. You can figure it out for yourself and see that you into a good sized stack of dimes."
Another man who got fifty dollars a month made it very nicely on his allowance, buying a part of his clothes. He had a failing for soft drinks and ice cream that tied up a good share of his allowance.
From figures obtained it seems that considerable is spent for cabs and flowers for formal parties, but that rarely happens more than twice each year. Very few took trips to Kansas City with any frequency.
Without exception the men questioned said they spent each year for churches and relief funds. One man gave as high as twenty-five for religious purposes during the year, and another as low as three.
The general average opinion, however, seemed to indicate that a man could subsist and it healthily on forty dollars a month. Just how much social life could be included within that amount, however, was a matter upon which students seemed to generally differ.
Will the person who took the overcoat by mistake from the library Saturday evening please return same to library or Kansan office at once?

Coaches From Varsity Squad to be Named Today
The varsity season is over but now comes the busiest time of the year for McCook Field. The inter-class squads will begin work this afternoon. The coaches for the different classes have not yet been announced by Coach Olcott other than Swede Nielsen and Humpty Wilson for the sophs and Speed Heath for the uniors.
The games promise to be much better than those of last year as class material is better matched. The sophs, however, have a strong bid as winner, but they don't need to make the varsity squad on account of eligibility. The juniors have practically the same line-up as last year and will make strong runners-up if they use the Minnesota shift again. The seniors and freshmen will win any numbers but will check out suits today. Much varsity material for the coming season, will no doubt be developed in these games.

CAPT. STATELER WINS K.C.MEET
University of Kansas Enters Five Men and Get the First Five Places
ESTABLISHES NEW RECORD
Running his best race of the season,
Ernest Statelier, captain of the K. U.
cross-country team, easily won first place
in the eighth annual K. C. A. C.
cross town run at Kansas City Sat-
day afternoon, breaking the record
of 25 minutes and 58 seconds made
by Rodkey at Kansas City. Statelier's
time was 25 minutes flat. The next
runner to catch, Welsh, this fall, the
Karquay Varsity team. Over four minutes behind the veteran Jayhawker distance runner, while Dillon came in a fifth of a second behind Welsh in 29 minutes and 2-5 seconds. The other two men to finish were University of Kansas freshmen.
Five Mile Course Through City Streets Made in 25 Minutes Flat
Shaw, a Kansas Aggie freshman, and Grady, the former distance man of the Kansas track team, did not finish the race. Both miles and Grady dropped out soon after this. Grady has been teaching school in Oklahoma since he graduated from K. U. last spring and has not kept in the same form that made him on the roster for the Valley last year. He ran for the K. C. A. C. Saturday. He was forced to quit the race because of pains in his side. L. Dewall and Kietzman, both freshmen from the University, finished fourth and fifth. The rest of the meet were from K. U., the freshmen being entered as unattached.
Rodkey did not run in the meet because of a severe cold which has been bothering him ever since the Ames meet. As a result of the run, the Kansas men brought a gold watch and four gold medals back from the city across the line. W. O. Hamilton only entered five men in the run.
Staterle took the lead after the first mile and was never headed. He finished nearly four blocks ahead of the nearest runner. His time might have been better had it not been for a line of coal wagons blocking his way near the finish. The good news is that he will meet will mean much for next year's cross country team. Only two men, Rodkey and Staterle, will be lost from the team and that leaves four old men to form the nucleus of the next fall's team.
Indoor track work is starting early this year in hopes that the Tiger quad will not get the jump on the Kansas men as in the past. Last Tuesday the time was taken on the mile relay for the first time this season. In the Convention Hall meet last year K. U. lost the meet by losing the relay by a scant foot. Every year the Missouri indoor team were men trying out for the relay team. It was said before the meet in the big hall last winter that the Tiger coach did not know which man to pick out of the twelve, so evenly balanced was the squad. This year there will be fully as many men trying out for the K. U. relay team if the early season competition is any indication. Captain Rodkey stated this might be one way that the may possibly decide the meet as it has done so many times in the past and that the only way to beat the Missourians was to have a large squad to pick from. He urged every quarter miler to get out early and try for the relay team.

KANSAS HAD NOTHING TO SAY AT THE BIG GAME
What did Kansas say?
Singly and collected, Kansas said heartbeat half-breaking minute when the Tiger's claw felt the life-blood of the Jayhawk. Then a murmur profane and prayerful, a murmur of disbelief, rage, resignation, and hope swept over the Kansas bleachers, broken by the cheerleader!

REAL PRACTICE TONIGHT
Coaches Need More Men in Prev vacation Practices
Notice has been posted that basketball practice begins with earnestness tonight. From now on the squad will practice every night. Coach Hamilton is expecting many candidates to report the next few nights as he needs more material from his team. Kansas standard. Many lively scrummages are expected when the football men begin to appear on the basketball court.
Coach Uhrlaub is lamenting the lack of fresh material. "We haven't enough men out from which to pick a team," is his complaint every night of practice. "We must have more men. We need more players and coaches. It is more new material for the squad next year. Every freshman who has played basketball should be out for this practice makes the Varsity team of next year much stronger."

TIGERS RETURN WEIGHT THROUGH PLATE GLASS
NATIONAL PRESIDENT
Hole is Still in Window
Pete, at the Boston confectionery is sore.
There is a reason. 'Tis this:
Thursday night, some wild Tigers came into his place of business, and with loud yells and a stool threatened,
them. The showman also devoted them outside. They went, taking with them certain weights which belonged to the candy scales on the counter.
They decided to return those weights, and did so, one of them by way of a hole, especially made for the occasion, through one of Pete's big plate glass windows. That hole did not seem to realize that its day of usefulness was over. It remained where it was. It is still there.
Pete says business was good while the Tigers were in town. Put that window costs a lot of money. And the Tigers who put the hole in it neglected to come back and make provision for a hole-less window.
WILL YOU SPEND $22.50
Therefore, Pete is sore.

Something New for You
THE RAMSEY SYSTEM—There's no use to go into detail about this new process but we want you to know that it is a process for cleaning that has never yet been excelled. We have been trying out the process for some time and now that we are satisfied that it is the best, we have adopted it and received all the rights to use it. It is especially good for things of the finer sort. For instance, don't hesitate to send us your kid gloves, kid shoes, furs, muffs, velvets, white serges, flannels, mohairs or any white garment that requires a water process.
THE CIRCLE BLENDER—This is just one of the big features of the process. Any spot or stain, regardless of its size, can be taken from a garment without the old trouble of leaving a distinct circle.
We guarantee our work and isn't this all the more reason why you should try this new system.

URGE ALL STATE SCHOOLS TO JOIN
Prof. L, N. Flint Advises Union of All Colleges to Work for Income Bill
HOLD CLUB CONVOCATION
County Organizations Will Explain Their Purposes at Meeting Friday
"Now is the time to get the state schools together on the proposition of the Permanent Income Bill if anything is to be done this year," said Prof. L. N. Flint, in his talk before the meeting of the County Club Union recently, "and the best way to do this is to send a representative from each state school and see that they form a Union as there is at K. U.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 5, 1916
CLUBS OPEN HEADQUARTERS
"If each school will do this and then elect a head for all of the Unions over the state, who will see that the schools are ably represented at the coming session of the legislature, the results will be wonderful."
Professor Flint showed the fault of the system used to get the bill he forre the legislature two years ago when it failed by only seven votes. This was due to the failure of the schools to co-operate. He explained how only one forty-fifth of all the state taxes went to the University and that the Permanent Invoice Bill required the advantage being that as the state grows the income of the school increases in proportion.
Willard Glasse, president of the Union, announced this morning the opening of the office of the County Club Union in the Alumni office in Fraser Hall. A conference in formation will be held. Amount Bill for the county clubs can be found here.

"The new pamphlets explaining the features of the bill will be off the press before the Christmas holidays," said Glasco today. "I wish to call the attention of all delegates of the County Club Union to an unannounced meeting at the Prairie Hall, Wednesday night at seven-thirty o'clock. Every county must be represented at this meeting either by the delegate or the president of the club."
The latest boost for the Permaint Income Bill was made at the senior-alumni smoker last Wednesday, when W. Y. Morgan called attention to the fact that the University ought to have a system whereby the alumni and students could co-operate to get the plans completed before the school really needed Plans have been completed for the County Club Convocation to be held next Friday to place before the whole student body the main features of the Income Bill. Prof. C. A. Dykstra, Chancellor Strong and Willard Glasco will be the main speakers of the day. Praser Chapel will be divided into two rooms and there to enlist the occasion. All delegates to the Union will sit on the platform.
Dwellers on Moon, "Look Out!"
WINKING MOON COAXES
FROM MT. OREAD
Dwellings on Moon. "Look Out."
Winthrop P. Haynes, assistant professor in geology, will exceed the speed limit of all flights to the moon tonight when, starting from Blake Hall at 7:30, with students of the University of Kansas, he explores Jupiter via the moon. Aviators are hereby given notice of the expedition and it is hoped that tourists and navigators on the moon will be warned about it before landing; made necessary on account of work here on the bill tomorrow, may render ordinary touring routes dangerous.
The members of Prof. Haynes Geology I class are fortunate in that he has chosen them to accompany him. It is hoped that no one will suffer from lack of breath. The students in the instructor physics will be used in the shoot to the moon for the investigation of this neighboring planet.
Inspects Foreign Shipments
Professor Wellhouse, assistant state entomologist, was in Topeka and Ottawa last week inspecting foreign shipments. Foreign shipments to this state cannot be opened until they have been inspected by the state entomology department. These shipments often contain disease germs that may have allowed the boat without inspection, might introduce some new disease which would cost the state thousands of dollars to exterminate.
Architects Meet
The Architectural Engineers Society will meet in Marvin Hall at 7:30 o'clock tonight. L. F. Bailley will give a talk on "Plan Arrangements."
PATTERSON WILL TALK ON

While in France this summer, Professor Patterson made a special study of the American war relief work, and he has many interesting things to tell us. He is a lifelong member of the French people have been affected by the present war.

VALLEY OFFICIALS MEET
Schedules for Year to be Made at Manhattan Friday
The coaches and managers of the Missouri Valley conference schools will meet in Manhattan Friday and Saturday for their semi-annual meeting. The participants will be questions of business that have arisen during the football season and disputed claims of various schools will be argued. Schedules for basketball, track, and baseball will be made out at that time. The University of Kansas, Chicago, E. W. Murray, for the faculty, and Coaches Olcott, Clarke and Hamilton
"Notices have not yet been sent out regarding the official business of this meeting," said Professor Murray this morning, "but the football, basketball, baseball, and track schedules will be made for the coming year. Other games will be scheduled." The conference will probably be discussed."
Student Recital
It is rumored that certain schools in the conference will ask this meeting to pass a resolution permitting the basketball schedule to permit playoff of games other than those which must be played with other teams in the conference. "I know nothing of this plan," said Professor Murray, "but it seems very as these points are considered in every meeting of the conference."
Prof. Arthur C. Terrill, head of the mining and ore dressing department, entertained an old schoolmate, Charles W. Burgess, of Joplin, at his home Thursday and Friday. They founded the College School of Minerals at the Colorado School of Mines. Mr. Burgess is now an agent for the Door Thickener company which is helping greatly in improving the ore dressing methods in the Joplin District.
Schoolmate Visits
Students in the School of Fine Arts will give a recital in North College Wednesday at four o'clock.
Where is Student Sentiment?
The Kansan has waited almost a week since the action of the Senate in suspending eight men from the University for the rest of the semester, to hear an open expression of opinion from the students in regard to the drastic steps taken.
Thus far no student has signified willingness to be quoted as either opposed to, or in favor of the action, and as far as can be learned no steps have been taken to secure a rehearing of the case before the committee.
But there is student sentiment for and against the action of the Senate whether it is openly expressed or not. What the Kansan wants is a sincere expression of student opinion from those who have been elected to represent the student body.
The Kansan has taken a stand in its editorial columns today. It wants to hear other student sentiment.
FEW STUDENTS FAIL TO PAY UP
Foster Expects Voluntary Loan Fund Contribution to Exceed $200
Few applicants for student directories have failed to contribute ten cents for their books, says George O. Foster, registrar. At noon today more than 775 had been added to the Student Loan Fund through this voluntary contribution of students and faculty members.
The distribution of books has been in progress only a day and a half. Mr. Foster now expects the total amount secured for the loan fund to far exceed his first estimate of $200.
Sixty-Four Dollars YESTERDAY When the office of the registrar closed yesterday afternoon, $64 had been paid into the fund, and contributions were equally brisk this morning.
"One business firm down town paid $5 for a directory," Mr. Foster said this morning, "and others have signified their willingness to be equally liberal."
FEW FAIL TO CONTRIBUTE "Few students and faculty members have failed to contribute. But don't think for a minute that students are the only ones who have passed the fund up.
"More faculty members, I think, than students have failed to contribute. But the contributions we have received and shall receive will add a neat little sum to the Student Loan Fund."
MRS. NEVIN OF NEW YORK BOARD OF HEALTH SPEAK!
That public health is purchasable is the contention of Mrs. Arthur Nevin, hateriologist, who speaks in Snow Hall this afternoon at fourthirty o'clock. Mrs. Nevin is well qualified to handle her subject, since she is a member of the Board of Health of New York, where she has recently been engaged in helping to stamp out the poliomyelitis epidemic, better known as infantile paralysis.
Mrs. Nevin is the wife of Prof. Arthur Nevin of the School of Fina Arts. She is being presented by the Women's Association of Collegeia Alumnae, in her lecture this afternoon.
Miss Burner will speak to the two groups every day. She will meet with the Y. W. cabinet each evening at 7:00 except Sunday when there is a special session at 3:30. At 4:30 each afternoon she will meet with a group of twelve university women who will be chosen on account of their interest and activity in Y. W. work. Friday afternoon at 4:30 there will be a special meeting of the Y. W. in Myers Hall when Miss Burner will speak to all university women on "The Fundamentals of Life."

FIFTY FROSH IN FIRST PRACTICE
Coach Olcott Put First Yea Men Through Strenuous Workout Yesterday
The freshmen proved they were strong for football when over fifty "fresh" turned out to the first class football practice yesterday afternoon. Coach Olcott took charge of the "green ones" and showed them how to handle the pig skin. The assistant coaches did not appear and Coach Olcott insisted that practice that a few remarked that pitching hay was easy compared with football. After running punts, the men were put on the dummy.
It is planned to break this large fresh aggregation into three squads, each squad working under one of the formations. The second be picked Thursday, and will be drilled on the formations and plays to be used against the strong sopho-
more team
SOPHOMORE LINE-UP CLASSY
Coach Humpty Wilson announces that he has the classiest team of all in his veterinary sophomore bath. Practically the same team that played under freshmen colors last year will battle for sophomores in the annual gridron contest of the classes.
The sophomores have many veterans on the squad. Hart and Gerhart, members of last year's freshmen team are expected to hold down the game against Lakewood at end while the backfield has an abundance of material. Doc Marquis, trainer for the varsity squad, and who played at Drake a year ago, will probably play quarter. Casey and Seward, both track men and players in the senior triumph will be half-backs while Dunkley will hold the position at fullback.
Coach Wint Smith is begging for more junior material. Only seven men appeared for practice yesterday afternoon. The nature of the senior team remains a mystery. Neither team plays players have been down to the field.
WANT MORE MATERIAL
it is hoped by the coaches and those in charge that the students will come out for practice. Many times the material is discovered if this way.
Prof. A. J. Boynton, of the department of economics, spoke on the "Adamson Bill" at Plymouth Center parish house Sunday evening. Explaining the bill with reference to its probable effect on railroad transport, he emphasized the fact that the problems arising from it are not likely to be settled for at least ten months after the law goes into effect (January 1), and that even then the strike danger will not be eliminated unless special legislation is passed. The situation is increased by the belligerent attitude of the rail managers and unions. An open discussion followed his lecture.

HEALTH WEEK CALLS FOR PLENTY OF FRESH
Fair tonight and Wednesday; not much change in temperature.
Did you study last night? Was your window open? Or did you sit all cooped up in your stuffy room and yawn and gape while trying to fathom what some author meant to sav?
If you didn't have your window open you were not observing Health Week which is being held this week. We are holding Health Week meetings.
Each day has been set aside for a special observance. Monday was Open Window Day, Tuesday was Tuberculosis Day, and the remaining days of the week have appropriate titles.
SENATE TALKS DISCIPLINE TODAY
Considers Relation of Chancellor to Enforcement of Faculty Regulation
The relation of the University Senate and of the Chancellor to the enforcement of discipline in the University will be considered at a meeting of the University Senate this afternoon.
A report of the committee recently appointed to draft plans for a code of disciplinary regulations and a permanent organization within the Senate for their enforcement, will be discussed at the meeting this afternoon and it is probable a permanent disciplinary organization will result.
Final decision in matters of discipline and the enforcement of this discipline will remain in the hands of the Chancellor, but it is understood the report made by the special Senate committee recommends a permanent Senate decree for investigations to serve in advisory capacity to the Chancellor.
As the result of action by the Senate just before the Thanksgiving vacation, the students who participated in the Naughty Rally have been punished, and nothing has occurred since. The Senate should justify any further consideration of the matter, say members of that body.
LAW SCRIM FRIDAY NIGHT
Football Men and Coaches Have Been Invited
The grand march of the Law Serim will start at eight-thirty o'clock a Friday night. Flowers and cabs are not tabooed but according to the Serim managers, Jack Bond and Joe Gaita's is preferred that they be omitted.
The football men, including all members of the squad who were out at the close of the season, and the coaches have been invited.
In the receiving line will be: Chancellor and Mrs. Frank Strong, Dr. and Mrs. W. L. Burdick, Jr. Jimmy Green, Mr. and Mrs. Herman Olcott, Potsy Clark, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Higgins, Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Rice, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Moore, Jack Bond and Joe Gaitskill.
EATS AND MUSIC FEATURES OF JOURNALISTS DANCI
The second journalists' dance to be given in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday December 9, will be featured by spiny music of Haley's orchestra and by different eats. Haley has a musical affinity with the occasion and there are to be seven novel stunts introduced during the evening's entertainment.
All students are urged to get their tickets early because at the last dance given by the journalists several were not able to get tickets. The dance is open to all University students, any sort of a newspaper and seventy-five cents being the required fees.
Gives Recital Saturday
"Mrs. Edward MacDowell knows better how her great husband wanted his music to be interpreted than anyone else does," says Henry F. Pinch in the New York Evening Post, commenting on Mrs. MacDowell's recitals for her own album. Ms. MacDowell lovers in the University of Kansas will have an opportunity to verify Mr. Finch's assertion Saturday, when Mrs. MacDowill will give a free recital in Fraser Hall. Mrs. MacDowell's recitals are entirely of her music, and Mr. MacDowell one time abandoned her promising career as a pianist because she believed it was a greater duty to help foster the great creative genius that was her husband's than to interpret the works of others. Mr. MacDowell objected to this, but the world benevolently knew now being in a position to interpret intimately the works of the dead master.

COLLEGE NOT ALL PLAY
They Read of Our Dances and Parties—Why Not Know Both Sides?
Wrong impressions have been disseminated over the state relative to student life at the University and as an obvious result the University has suffered, now the University sets a week for the mothers and fathers to see for themselves what their sons and daughters are really doing.
Students at the University of Kansas are always glad to receive their mothers and fathers, they always keep open house to welcome their parents, but the week of December 11 to 16 has been set aside as a special week for Mothers and Fathers to see the University in its working clothes. Every effort is being made by the faculty and the students to get the Mothers and Fathers here during this week.
K. U. IN WORKING CLOTHES
Dress the 'Mothers' and 'Fathers'
week the mother is natural and the parents are invited and urged to go with their son and see him at work in the chemistry laboratory, to see him perform his experiments, to the Daily Kansan to print, and to attend a class in freshman rethoric.
K. U. SERVES THE STATE
STATE THE STATE
The University with its many departments and schools, is doing a great service to Kansas and the sons and daughters of the state leader. University each year efficient in their chosen line of work and ready to do their part in making Kansas a greater state.
The parents during the week of December 11 to 16 will be shown the "student in the making" at his dissecting table in the anatomy course, at his bench in Fowler Shops, or analyzing the different minerals found in the rocks of Kansas at Haworth Hall.
TRYOUTS ON THURSDAY
Contestants May Talk For Five Minutes
Tryouts for the debating squad which will compete with Missouri, Alabama, and Colorado universities his spring, will be held Thursday at Hall Hull, 8:00 a.m., Hall 5. Five minutes will be allowed such contest in which to debate.
Every contestant must hand in a brief by Wednesday, according to O. H. Thurs, instructor of public speaking, the debate which will be the same for all schools. The subject is: "Resolved: That the Principale of Compulsory Investigation of Industrial Disputes as Under the Canadian Compulsory Investigation Act Should Be Adopted by the Congress of the United States."
Two tryouts will be held in order to pick the members for the debating squad. Members of last year's teams will be allowed to enter the second tryouts to be held in the near future. Out of this squad three teams consisting of three men each will be selected to represent the school.
HUMBLE AND CO. HUNT
PACRICIOUS POSSUM
Light Lunch Only Reward
Opossums scurried about seeking trees and underbrush in the valley of the Wakarusa last night, and well they might, for Henry Wilbur Humble, professor of law, was on their trail with an excited following of Phi Alpha Delitas to capture them dead or alive.
"Opossums in this part of the country don't 'play dead'—they beat it," said Professor Humble on being questioned as to the success of the hunt. "Of course the biggest ones got away," explained this same officer; so far "but we succeeded, nevertheless, in having countless number." Luncheon was seen after a ten-mile hike—but it didn't consist of opossums!
Art Collection is On Display
The collection of pictures now on display on the third floor of Administration building is causing much notice and admiration on the campus. The exhibit was received by Prof. W. Smith from eastern schools showing the work of the artists. The collection is composed mostly of oil paintings done from still life studies and models, although there are a number of design exhibits.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1916.
THE NAUGHTY RALLY
For participation in the Naughty Rally, eight students have been suspended from the University for the entire semester. It is not claimed that they were instigators of the demonstration, or even ringleaders. Members of the senate and disciplinary committee freely admit that the culprits were merely eight of the several hundred who swarmed across the campus the morning of October 27. The only difference seems to be that they happened to have their names handed in and, when brought before the Inquisition, were men enough to admit that they were in the crowd.
According to the secretary of the senate, there are no specific charges of misconduct, such as violence to persons or property, against the eight. Only two so much as had paddles in their hands, according to the testimony.
The accused were not even given the right to be faced by their accusers. They were simply ordered to appear and show why they should not be punished—a la middle ages.
At this point the Daily Kansan wishes to make clear that it does not in the least defend the Naughty Rally. This paper has repeatedly condemned the practice of breaking up classes, and championed enforcement of discipline. Violations of discipline must be punished.
But the Daily Kansan also believes in justice. It believes that there should be some reasonable relation between the size of the misdemeanor and the penalty. It does not believe in inflicting an onerous punishment altogether out of proportion to the seriousness of the offense.
And the Daily Kansan further believes in prevention as well as punishment.
A man must needs be guilty of a grave act of misconduct to be thrown out of school for an entire semester.
No move was made to forestall the rally. A similar outbreak occurred two years ago. Another almost happened last year. Yet in the face of this, University disciplinarians slumbered smugly until—
The inevitable came. Then they were ready—with the club.
The Kansan does not accuse the disciplinary committee of personal prejudice or intentional injustice. But it does believe that they allowed their zeal for enforcement of discipline to run away with their best judgment.
We are informed that the "alumn came pouring in" last Thursday What did they pour?
WHY NOT?
Why not a whistle at 1:20 in the afternoon as well as 8:20 in the morning? It may be a deplorable fact that students need to be warned ten minutes before class time, but it is handy.
The one objection to the whistle at 1:30 is that it corresponds to the
warning whistle in the morning and not to the call to classes at 8:30. If we are striving for uniformity and system—as it stands we have a warning whistle before every other class—why not a warning whistle at 1:207
Since classes have been moved from eight to eight-thirty it allows only an hour for lunch, and many of those who have six and eight blocks to go find the warning whistle a good reminder to start back on the hill. ECT1 7.nspi科i a *fimus* sG— 0
There was once a man who rose to speak without making an apology for what was to follow; but that was in the good old days.
APPRECIATION
One of the greatest arts any one may possess is that of appreciation. Very few people appreciate what other people do for them. Some people stand around waiting to be looked after and expecting favors to be showered upon them. The art of appreciation and the art of expectation do not always go hand in hand.
Then there is the other type of individual, the one who thanks you very kindly for the smallest favor. We should not do for others with the sole idea of retribution, but just a smile or a nod, or some slight way of showing our appreciation, finds such a quick response in another's nature. One's whole outlook on life may be changed by a kind act, or letting some one know that you appreciate a kindness.
One of the greatest things in life is to do for others, but it is just as great to appreciate what others do for you.
THE WAGGING TONGUE
Who thinks much of the fellow whose tongue is everlastingly warging, who sees to it that he gets the last word and to the majority of every conversation, who is inconvinced and able to make sense of his ideas, that the recognized authorities and every one who thinks twice before he speaks fades into insignificance in the mind of the gabbler. Of all the gas bombs that were present in existence, the wangging tongue is Beekebob's masterpiece—The Midland.

CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent
At last another great reform wave is surging over Mt. read and this time the target of the reformers is the Frost cap coupled with the time honored practice of paddling yearlings Like all efforts of this kind, it is gainful and impetus but how well it will succeed, remains a matter of conjecture.
OTHER SIDE OF THE QUESTION
to the Kansas;
However, the campaign has a few very interesting features. In the first place all the howl is being raised by uninterested parties. Although the freshmen are the most vitally concerned, or at least should be, when it is considered that they have to understand "whereshelf hotdogs" referred to by the reform league, they have thus far said nothing official. In fact the freshmen are, and always have been, satisfied. It was by a vote of the freshman class that the caps were worn and if a vote were taken today, the freshman would decide to continue the cap tradition. The complaining element seems to be composed of local pastors and a few faculty members. Surely if the freshmen are satisfied these other parties have no room for objection.
And in regard to "what they do at other schools.' It has been said that in the East, hazing has been done away with, along with a number of other harbors customs. Has it? A student who recently visited a number of large schools in the East as a student in a school with paddling bridege is a mild form of discipline compared to that in vogue in schools at which he visited.
And now as regards paddling. No one has suffered any injury from it and there are innumerable instances where it has accomplished some good. Faculty men are continually complaining that K. U. has not tolerated "like they have in other schools". Paddling is one of the few traditions, so why should it be done away with? At last, but not least, it is something decided upon by students, supported by students, and which effects no one but students. Therefore does it behove outside parties to become so deeply concerned over this matter which is a trifle outrage, midlife-age women are being looked for there are others of greater import which can be discovered. Let well enough alone.
LET GEORGE DO IT?
Hawk Squak.
POET'S CORNER
"You have to have a part, to make a hit." This is true not only on the stage but in college and in life. The man who stands back and says, "Oh well, let George do it," rarely makes a hit. For George is usually able and confident. He may not do it as well. He may make blunders and mistakes. But that is no crime. The world is governed by people who make mistakes.
SO?
The editor of the Kansas notes of the Kansas City Star takes the trouble to point out that the Daily Kansan is distinctive in that it has a Sports Editor while most papers are content to have a Sporting Editor or a Sport Editor. We rise to remark that the Sports Editor is the proper title, although some papers can boast of a Sports Editor. It is immaterial with us, for at the present time our Sports Editor may well be termed a sporting Editor.
WONDERING
'Jes' a sittin' here at night A thinkin' lots of things
Wonderin' what the folks at home
Are doin' long 'bout now;
Wonder if they all are there
What a lot of different thots
An hour like this one brings!
Wonder if my best girl is home Or if she has a date
Wonder if they all are there They sure are, I vow.
With one of the fellows in the town
And if she's stayin' out late.
I have at 8 o'clock.
I've wasted all my time right here
And I've myself to knock.
—Daily Nebraskan.
Sing a song of autumn
Of wienie roasts and hikes,
When we eat a lot of things,
That everybody likes.
Wonder if I'll flunk that quiz I have at 8 o'clock—
Wonder if my dad n'd send
That check I want next week,
Or if I'll have to soak my watch
To settle those who seek.
CLASS TIME ON THE HILL
Wonder if my dad'll send
AUTUMN
Tis a fearful thing in K. U.
To be piled up high and fast,
And to hear our legislature
Thunder! "Cut away the man
Like a flock of weary sheep;
It is class time on Mount Oread,
And a prof is talking deep.
And to hear our legislature Thunder: "Cut away the mast!"
We are crowded in a class room,
Like a clack of wavy chonk.
So we shudder here in silence,
And we sometimes hold our breath
While our governor is campaigning And our mill tax faces death.

LEAGUE FAVORS CITY MANAGERS
Will Ask Legislature to Allow Cities to Adopt New Government
A bill to permit cities to adopt the city manager plan of government will probably be presented in the committee on housing. The League of Kansas Municipalities,
The proposed law will allow citie on a vote of their citizens to provide for a governing commission wif authority to employ a city manager who will have charge of the administration of the city, subject to the supervision and control of the governing body of the C. H. Taureau factory of the League, this morning, "Iowa, Massachusetts, New York, Virginia, Ohio and Iowa have laws permitting this plan in the cities of the state."
This plan is used in 37 cities over, the United States, and eighteen other cities have such a plan differing only in the team. Niagara Falls, N.Y.; Brownville, Tex.; Dayton, Ohio; Phoenix Ariz.; La Grande, Ore.; Webster City, Iowa and Santa Barbar, Cal. These cities are the cities which have the city manager plan.
"The League is not urging nor asking any city to adopt the plan," continued Mr. Talbot, "but it is simply requesting the legislature to allow the people of any city who wish to adopt the law." The managers and towns are said to be interested in adopting the manager form if permitted to do so."
"The League of Kansas Municipalities is strongly in favor of permitting the people of the communities in the state to make their own charters of government. We need a strict stintion and general laws. If any city desires to adopt the city manager plan or commission plan or any other system of local government best suited to meet needs and desires, we believe that they should have the opportunity to do so."
DATES JUST GROW AT THE LIBRARY
Six men wearly climbed the hill to the Library at nine o'clock last night. A visitor to Mr. Oread might have remarked of them, "These college men have to study like dogs. The idea of coming up to study at nine o'clock at
You Walk Right In and Turn Around and Walk Right Out Again
When the "would be" students reached the steps of Spooner, the visitor might have been shocked to hear one of them say, "Let's go in and see what we can pick up." They had come to pick dates.
They didn't have any books with them—they couldn't be bothered that way. After hanging up their coats, they pushed the chair into the room, looking for a chair beside a lady fair.
According to a Kansan reporter who was sitting on the library steps waiting for a boy(?) friend, the six fellows had no trouble in dating up. Between nine o'clock and nine-thirty, twenty couples came rambling out to play with their children only four of them came to the library together. Five of the twenty men dating were fraternity men and the same number of girls, sorority women. Nine of the twenty "fortunate" fellows just entered the door, gave their girl the high sign and then waited or the outside for them. Three fellows entered the library and studied (?) five minutes and then came out with a lady on their arm. Two fellows met the middle-aged lady and to draw two girls each, and one man was so unfortunate as to get lined up with three of the fair sex.
"Lots more wanted dates but couldn't get them," said the reporter. "They sat down outside with me every tried to get me to get him." Our course I couldn't be bothered—I was having troubles of my own."

TROPHIES MAY BE SEEN AT GYM
Many Objects of Interest Representing K. U. Victories Are There
If you are a lover of sports, you will find many objects to hold your interest in the trophy room on the Robinson gymnasium. west end of Robinson gymnasium.
In the center of the room stands a large glass case containing a number of footballs, won by Jayhawk prowess on the gridiron. On the top shelf of this case are arranged several loving cups of different sizes and shapes, representing Kansas victory in the cinder track, tennis and basketball courts, and in fact, almost every branch of athletics.
Two banners, representing Kansas football championships of the Western University Football Association in 1892 and 1893, hang on the south wall. This association was composed of Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, andWAa, and was housed at the room of the room is the Gordon & Koppel wrestling trophy, which was won by Kansas in a dual meet with the Kansas City Y. M. C. A. in 1911. The Spalding Banner, representing first prize in the Kansas City Athletic League, was presented March 22, 1907, which was won by K. U., hangers on the south wall.
On each of the four walls of the room are hanging pictures of the different athletic teams, including a photograph of the ever-victorious football team of 1908, coached by A. R. Kennedy, now at Washburn.
A large photograph of Tommy Johnson, K. U.'s greatest athlete, famed for his sixty-air run for a touchdown and victory over Nebraska in 1909, stands on a rack at the west side of the room.
Not many more days in which to have your Christmas photo made. Make your date now. Squires, the official Jayhawker photographer.—Adv.

AT THIS RATE it appears that some men swallow a few acres of land and an orchard each year.

CLARK COACHING GOAL SHOOTERS
Basketball Practice Starts In Earnest—Seven Football Men Out
"Potys" Clark, assistant coach in basketball.
Three squads of Varsity players and some twenty-five freshmen were at practice last night. Under the direction of Coaches Hamilton and Clark, the men went through an extended work-out in passing to light sarmimage Practice began at seven and ended at nine o'clock.
Practice for the Varsity will be held every night, even during the Christmas holidays. With the opening game the first week after vacation, it is necessary that Coach Hamilton round his men into shape at once.
The football men were out in good numbers last night and caused the篮球队 some worry. Seven of the regulars on the football squad have checked in their gridiron equipment and are starting after basketball letters. Among the men out for places are Shinn and Minor, forwards; Martin, center; Lindsey, Wilson, Laslett, and Woodward guards.
The football men made a good showing on the first night and a similar showing will land places for them on the regular squad.
ELABORATE PROM BEING PLANNED
Baltimore Hotel Orchestra to Play for University's Biggest Formal Party
Complete plans for the junior prom,
the biggest party of the school year;
were announced this morning by
Howard Fleeson and Harry Montgomery.
The first Friday after the Christmas
holidays—will be the date; and Robinson
Gymnasium, the place. The grand
march will begin at 8:15 o'clock,
and dancing will continue without inter-
mission until 2 o'clock Saturday
morning.
"Riley's orchestra from the Pompeian Room at the Hotel Baltimore in Kansas City will furnish the dance music," said Frank Fratcher, chairman of the program committee, this morning. "Riley is famous for his 'Jazz-time' music—a sort of raggy jazz ensemble—that is funable for an auditor to keep his position. The orchestra will play two-two dance numbers, each twenty minutes long—and the music will be full of hot stuff from start to finish. A serpentine and confetti carnival will be the climax to the evening."
Instead of the annual junior force which was a feature of proms in the past, the management has secured two cabaret singers who will entertain during the five-course supper which will be served all guests on the tour. The group includes sisters, Mae and Millie, who were with the "World of Pleasure" company in Kansas City recently, will stage the cabaret stunts. They will join Lawren for again when it moves to Lansing on January 8—three nights after the prom.
The five-course supper will be served at quartet tables, some two hundred guests being accommodated at one time. "We haven't selected a caterer yet," said Russell Friend, chairman of the refreshment committee, of the refreshment cakes" this morning, "but you can bet your life we'll ret a clavely one."
ELABORATE DECORATIONS
Decorations will be in purple and white, according to Ennis Whitehead, chairman of the decoration committee. "We're going to use a unique lighting system," said Whitehead this morning, "and the effects we expect to secure ought to make the gym a sure'nuf fairyland. We've sent to the Yosemite Valley, California, for some dwarf red wood pins for use in decorating. Artificial wisteria flowers also will be used."
ADMISSION IS SAME
yet," said Fleson, "but we'll begin pretty soon, in all probability."
In spite of the rising costs of paper and other commodities necessary in staging the prom, the admission price will remain the same—the $7 a couple—according to Manager Fleeson. "We haven't planned for the ticket sale,
Horace Chandler is chairman of the invitation committee. Invitations are sent to a number of faculty members in the University attended the prom in their junior year.
FALL CONCERT BEST EVER,
SAYS DIRECTOR MCNANLES
"The annual fall concert on Dec. 14 will be the best concert ever given by a K. U. band," said J. C. McCanles, of the University band this morning.
New selections of standard, classical, and popular music are included in the program. A saxophone quartette, and a violin solo by Miss Edna Hopkins, fa '18, are among the special features.
"The boys are practicing hard," continued Mr. McCanles. The forty-three members of the first band have already met together forty times.

C. A. Poland, K. U. Man, Finds This So In Oklahoma
That Oklahoma is going about the business of building roads with the best spirit he has ever seen, was the statement made by C. A. Poland, recently graduated from the School of Engineering at the University of Kansas and now with the W. S. Dickey Clay Manufacturing Company. "Mr. Poland has visited every county in the state of Oklahoma since the Ozark Trails road agitation was began, and the valuable value of the movement cannot be over-estimated," The Daily Oklahoma writes.
Mr. Poland has been with the W. S. Dickey company since his graduation last spring, doing field service and sales work in Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and the South. Recently he traveled a trip to Louisiana and Tennessee.
Through Mr. Poland's efforts a small model of the tile road curvet which he soils has been placed in the city to allow him to build Building by the Dickey Company.

LAW SCRIM AT F. A. U. FRIDAY
Annual Party In Honor of Football Team to be Elaborate—Unique Features
TICKETS SELLING RAPIDLY
Haley's Orchestra Will Play for Dance Numbers—Four Course Supper
The Law Scrim Friday night is to be given in F. A. U. Hall instead of in Robinson Gymnasium. This announcement was made this morning by Managers Jack Bond and Joe Gaitskill. The superiority of the F. A. U. dancing floor and the fact that the basketball squad is using the gym every night were the reasons for the change. Popular sentiment seems to indicate that the change will be a welcome one.
"The 1916 Scrim will be the most elaborate party ever given in honor of any football squad at K. U.," is the prediction of Manager Bond. "We have spared no expense in making the party as elaborate as the five-dollar admission price will permit, and I feel safe in saying that no previous party will compare with this year's event," said Bond.
HALEY WILL PLAY
Preceding the grand march, which will occur at 8:15 o'clock, will be a reception in honor of the football squad and the members of the faculty of the School of Law, "Uncle Jimmy," who will share honors in the line with Capt. Adrian Lindsey—the man whose team humbled the haughty Cornuskers. At 8:15, Haley's six-piece orchestra strike up the opening strains of the band and dancing will continue from then until 2 o'clock Saturday morning.
-
Saxaphone music and "stunt" numbers are to be features of the orchestra program. Haley's orchestra—which has played for practically every big party given at K. U. during the last five years—is well known and that she does the measurement that he will play for the Scrim is sufficient to insure the success of the party. There will be twenty-four dance numbers.
A SUPPER INCLUDED
A four course supper will be served to the guests during the evening, in the new dining hall which was built in F. A. U. last spring, Frank Hetherington and "Skin" Grever, who catered at the junior prom and the sophomore hop last year, will have charge of the eats. Mick Murphey, chairman of the decorating committee at the 1915 soph hop; and the man who has the long dress in decorum for K. U. parties, with red sweaters, the scrim, Crimson and blue will predominate in the color scheme, of course, as the party is given in honor of the football squad.
Tickets for the party have been selling rapidly among the Laws, for whom the party is theoretically given. The class may be admitted, however, and Manager Bond expects a large delegation for the College, the School of Engineering, and the Medicies and Pharmics. The following men have charge of tickets: Joe Gainskill, Jack Boud Hoyt Joe, Walbrun Jones, and DAVE Brown.

BIG GUNS BOOM AT Y. M. TONIGHT
Heinzman and Porter Will Tel Local Workers About Cleveland Meetings
Harry L. Heinzman of the International Committee of the Y. M. C. A. and David R. Porter, chairman of the International Committee, are in Lawrence this week for the purpose of making a report to the local organizations concerning the work of the Cleveland Conference of Churches and Associations recently held in Cleveland, Ohio.
In these two men the University has the pleasure of entertaining two of the biggest men in Y. M. work, Harry L. Heinzman is a graduate of the University of Kansas, receiving his degree in 1906. He was a member of the Varsity football squad for four years and he has been actively engaged in Y. M. work and in this has become known throughout the country.
David R. Porter is not so well known on Mount Oread. He began his college work at Bowdoin College, and in his sophomore year passed the Rhodes Scholar examination and went to Oxford for three years. At Oxford he made recruiting for the University. On his return to America he became the boys' secretary to the International Committee, and started the conference of older boys, such as was recently held in Topeka. When John R. Mott recruited him from Oxford, which was one of the student work, Mr. Porter was chosen as his successor.
Most of the time of Mr. Porter and Mr. Heinzman will be spent in conferences with the secretaries of the local organizations and the pastors of the university. Most of the time he will address the students of the University in Myers Hall at seven o'clock on "The Value of a Standard." A meeting will be held by Mr. Heinzman tonight at Haskell in which he will present his money for the bristle war camps.
On Thursday night, from eight to nine o'clock, the Student Volunteer Band will hold an open meeting in Myers Hall.
)LD STUDENT IN RECITAL
Harold Henry Will Give Music Learned in Europe
The Weather
Harold Henry, '01, one of the University's most distinguished artists, will give a concert on the piano in Fraser Chapel on the evening of January 9. Mr. Henry is an old resident of Lawrence, his mother still living at 913 Tennessee. He was graduated from the Lawrence high school and the School of Fine Arts of the University, where he graded this graduation he went abroad and studied in France under Vedlieke and Moszykowski.
Partly cloudy tonight and colder in north and west portions. Thursday fairs
Mr. Henry is now established in Chicago, keeping a studio in the Fine Arts building. The coming of Mr. Henry to Lawrence offers to the student an opportunity to enjoy the work of a finished pianist who began his studies in this city and who laid the foundation of his fame while a son of Mount Oread. He has gained an international reputation and many K. U. professors member him has followed with interest each successive step of his career.
"The intake of Water by Certain Colloids in a Saturated Atmosphere" is the subject of the paper which Prof. C. A. Shull, of the department of botany, will read at the meeting of the Plant Biology Department in New York City, December 26-28. The paper is a report on experiments in plant physiology carried on in the laboratory for the past two years. Results seem to indicate that some of the theories regarding the mechanisms leads to water will have to be changed.

MODERN KANSAS PLAY AT K. U
Mother and Father Are Star Actors in Popular Play to be Staged Here
UNIVERSITY IS SETTING
Son and Daughter Advertise and Push Success of Novel Production
This isn't a true story this week but it will be.
Setting: Ten room farm house, Western Kansas, with modern conveniences.
Fater and Mater are discussing post card with printed invitation.
"Guess you and me'll have to go up to Lawrence next week for the University Fathers' and Mother's Week they're going to hold up there," said the Pater to the Mater. And Pater pulled on his pipe and thought; Mater sat with her knitting basket and thought.
Time: "Dec, IT 8:16"
Test: Campus, University > Kaugaon.
They start for Lawrence.
Time: Dec 11 to 16.
Pater is taking it all in under the guidance of son. Mater has been enjoying the life of K. U. womanhood. Pater strolls about the campus while son attends class. He strays into the department of Bacteriology. Pater is informed that he is unemployed from every large city in the state. The water in the cooler on the train was tested by this department.
Pater happens into the department of Mining Engineering and an instructor shows him testing machines which are used to investigate and improve building materials used by cities. When he goes up into the Administration building, he discovers that all art "ain't so worse". He hires a professor who explains shiftlessness of the Laws but discovers they actually absorb plenty of law and that the course is mighty practical.
Son, he finds out, is taking accounting. What good has business on the farm? Pater asks. But son soon shows him how the farm may be run on a firmer basis with every cow and chicken paying for its unkeep. Fowler Shops, the Engineering Building and the Chemistry labs prove to Pater that all things at the University are not theory.
Daughter escorts Mater to a class in Hygiene and Sanitation; Mater takes notes that will start new work and discussion in the home community. The department of Home Economics affords a startling number of recipes for meat-loaf and baked beans and suggestions for remodeling the sink and pantry at home. Daughter shows her the playground for the women, tennis courts, hockey fields, a gym with a band of gym apparatus. Daughter never looked rosier and she has gained eight pounds, the record shows it in Dr. Dorothy Child's office. Mater ends the school day at the Y. W. meeting, hears a fine talk and joins in the social meeting and tea.
"She's some place," says the Pater.
Guess you kids'll have to go some more next year. I learned a lot and grinned again. Watch for me Easter."
Time: Christmas Vacation.
Setting: Son and daughter at the

GLEE CLUB WILL GIVE
SACRED CONCERT SUNDAY
The University Glee Club will give a sacred concert next Sunday night at the First Methodist Church at seven-forty-five o'clock. The young men have been given the whole evening for their program which is to consist of solos, quartets and numbers by the entire glee club. One unusual program which is to part of clarinet which is to have part in the entertainment.
W. P. B. Downing, director of the glee club, said this morning that as far as he knew this would be the first time the choir will attend at any of the churches this winter.
CONVOCATION OF VITAL IMPORTANCE
Permanent Income Bill to be Discussed Friday Morning— Make Plans Tonight
The County Club Convocation Friday morning in Fraser Chapel will be of more vital importance to the student body at K. U. than any other all-university meeting held this year. The meeting is held to explain the Permanent Income Bill to the students of the University and to boost the bill. The success or failure of the bill depends on how the institution will decide whether the University of Kansas is to drift along as it has in the past with no building program such as it has needed for the last eight years or if it is to progress and be improved as the state grows. Chancellor Strong, Prof. C. A. Dykstra, and Willard Glaso will describe the Income Bill and the need of such a law in Kansas. Every school which needs a building program must obtain such a bill. Kansas has obtained such a program of improvement through a Permanent Income Bill such as is being proposed in Kansas this fall. McCanes and his band will furnish music for the occasion. All of the organized county clubs will be represented at the convocation by their delegates on the platform. Fraser Chapel will be divided into counties to represent the county clubs. All of the counties will sit in his county as designated Final plans for the convocation will be made at the meeting of the county club union tonight.
MRS. MacDOWELL COMING
Wife of Noted Composer Here
Saturday Night
Mrs. Edward McDowell will give a concert Saturday evening at 7:30 in Fraser Hall. Mrs. McDowell is the wife of the late Edward McDowell, who considered one of America's greatest composers and is well-known all over Europe.
Mrs. McDowell will give a recital on her husband's compositions. Mrs. McDowell is being paid by the University and the money will go to the artists to maintain the Colony for Artists at Peterboro, New Hampshire.
It was the plan of Edward McDowell to establish a colony in a secluded place where artists, interested in music, literature, painting, and sculpture could go in the summer and devote their entire time to their art. After his death, Mrs. McDowell carried out the plan.
At the colony at Petersboro, fourteen studios are scattered through the woods. Artists who devote their entire time towards the advancement of their particular art, come there to live in the summer time. They pay a dollar a day for their lodging, board, and studio.

STUDENT INDIGNATION CRIES OUT AGAINST ACTION TAKEN BY SENATE
Officials of Various Undergraduate Bodies Issue Statements Condemning Course of Disciplinary Committee on Grounds That Penalty Is Too Severe
SENIOR PRESIDENT SAYS SENATE SHOULD HAVE TRIED
PREVENTION INSTEAD OF UNJUST CURE
One Communication, Although Opposed to Action of Senate, Criticizes Officials of Student Organizations for Failure to Act in Behalf of Suspended Students
Student sentiment, in regard to the action taken by the University Senate in suspending eight students for a semester as a penalty for their having participated in the naughty rally, crystalized this morning when the presidents of the four classes and a number of other prominent students issued statements voicing the attitude of various student factions in regard to the matter.
The general sentiment as expressed in the statements, seems to be opposed to both unauthorized rallies and the action of the disciplinary body. The communicants seem to think that the penalty was wholly disproportionate with the crime and that the eight men who were expelled from school were shouldering a burden which, if rightful at all, should have been borne by a hundred or more.
A diversity of opinion exists however, as one student, whose statement is among those that follow, seems to think that the officials of the various student organizations, should have taken concerted action at once. He is opposed to mere criticism and suggests that the students agree upon a solution of the problem and then offer it to the University Senate.
George Snee, president of the senior class—I voice the sentiment of the entire senior class when I say the action of the University Senate was ill-taken. Why didn't they consult some of the class officers beforehand on the matter and use an ounce of prevention instead of a pound of cure that will accomplish nothing and work as well as a hardship on the parents of all our unfundable students. I am opposed to unauthorized rallies and want to see the student body meet and pass a resolution opposing them; but not until the Senate shows some inclination to be fair in the matter.
Paul R. Grever, president of the Men's Student Council—I do not believe in rallies of the kind that occurred on the morning of October, twenty-seventh. That rally was not approved of by the student body. A great many of the participants did not approve of it.
Blondie Jones, former junior president—I have been asked by the Kansan to give an expression of my opinion as to the action of the University. Senate in expelling eight korean students, that action was a disgrace to the institution. It was the vicious snort of the old stand-pat element within our faculty. It is a fitting example of country "teacher" discipline. The sentiment among students against unrestrained teaching. Inasmuch as the Senate failed to see this, their policy was a shortsighted one. Their action in trying to cover up what they had done by not publishing the names of the victims cannot be other than cowardly. They were middle ages, and their success in obtaining the responsible parties was a miserable failure.
But the punishment that fell upon those who admitted their connection with the affair was too severe. The expulsion of a student from school, with the loss to him of one semester's work and between two hundred and three hundred dollars in cash is certainly a matter not to be passed over
It is particularly to be deplored that the spirit of co-operation and harmony which has developed to a marked degree between the student body and the faculty within the last two years, relative to matters of this kind should receive a set-back at this time by the administration of a penalty far disproportionate to the misdeeds of those upon it fell.
Taking all these facts into consideration, the greatest and most absurd wrong lies in the penalty imposed. Student opinion unanimously cries out that the penalty was too severe for the men even were in no way capable of starting the rally, and even those who were, deserve no such penalty as was inflicted. The senate surely failed to realize the effects of their workbook. Their penalty practically means a fine of $200 or $300 upon the parents and guardians, but they tightly feel it as a hardship, as well as the loss of a half year to the themselves. The crime was not a high crime against heaven—only one to irritate a few of our old-fashioned stand-pats among the faculty. Although the vote in the Senate was very low, it was several of the professors that the feeling among them is not unanimous as regards such a severe penalty.
Following are the statements of various students and officials which were handed in to the Kansan this morning;
Every student in the University should feel a sense of duty calling upon him to protest in some way against his own sins or sin against eight of our members.
Baldwin Mitchell, senior law president—I am very much opposed to the action taken by the University Senate. Those persons participating in the rally undoubtedly should have been punished, but not so drastically. I firmly believe that when the Senate expelled these men for a full semester they defeated the purpose for which this institution exists. I wonder if the Senate members have stopped to consider what the people of the state would say if the latter knew the facts.
Justin Blount, president of the sophomore class—It isn't right that these eight men should have to suffer for the actions of the several hundred who were just as instrumental in the rally as were the eight. While many of them were the braining classes wasn't exactly right, I say that the punishment was too severe. The Senate was too drastic in its action.
Mark Adams, president of the freshman class- It seems to me that the disciplinary committee took too drastic action in expelling the naughty ralliers for a whole semester. There is no doubt that these students are more than innocent, and should fit the crime. The leaders of the rally got away, in my opinion, and those who were caught were not the most guilty.
Ted Richter, president of the junior class—The Kansan yesterday seemed surprised that no student opinion had been voiced in its columns concerning the suspension of the eight Universities on Friday with the "naughty rally." The fact is the students were so shocked at the announcement of the faculty that they are just recovering and beginning to speak their opinion as to the injustice of the penalty and the reality which the eight men were selected.
I voice the sentiment of the majority of students when I say that the penalty inflicted was far too severe. It, at least, means a fine of $500, allowing for money spent and what could have been earned while here. To some the action may mean the loss of a college education.
The reason I would ask the Disciplinary Committee to reconsider its action by shortening the period of suspension, say to Christmas, is that I believe, first, that it will show that the committee is sincerely and, second, that the committee will be showing kindness to the few who have hundred of violators who were, as we hear, very illegally tried, and, as we think, too severely punished. Must a fewer suffer for the crowd just to teach a lesson?
Alfred Wieters, president of the School of Engineering—I am utterly opposed to naughty rallies and I am likewise opposed to the action of the University Senate in suspending eight students for a semester. If the guilty parties deserve suspension—I do not believe they did—then more students should be given penalty. These few participants should not shoulder the burden when the instigators and leaders of the rally have been allowed to escape punishment. The action of the disciplinary committee seems to have been a blind stab and not action thoroughly thought out beforehand.

A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1916
Father and Mother are coming to the University next week to see us in our working clothes. They will see us in classes, in the laboratories, at chapel, and in the library. They will see us in both our serious and frivolous activities.
But why let the opportunity slip away, when we are showing them that we are hard at work for ourselves, to show them that we are hard at work for the University of Kansas? Read up and talk up with those who know and find out what you can best say to get the new appropriations for the University of Kansas.
Show the folks the old North College and the hole in the ground next to the Administration Building. Take them to the fifth floor and the basement of Fraser Hall where you are having classes every day. Let them know that the University is in dire need of new equipment—that while the University has doubled in enrollment in the last six years, the equipment has been increased only in proportion to an increase of one hundred students.
They probably don't want you to work in poorly lighted and wretched ventilated rooms. Your father and mother are powers in politics in their home counties. They can get the Mill Tax, or rather, the Permanent Income Bill for us if anybody can.
Get a list of some of the prominent professors who have gone to other schools in the past few years, and see what effect it will have on them. Let them sit in some of our "Prehistoric Back-Breakers" for a few minutes.
Here is a golden opportunity.
The appearance of the new directory reminds us that its time for some sub reporter to count the Smiths, Jones, Brown, Greens, Whites, Bakers, Butchers, Millers, Taylors, and what not among its columns.
"Kansas has the most unappreciative and impolite audiences in the United States."
OUR CRUDE MANNERS
This was the statement made by an able member of the faculty after attending a lecture given in the chapel recently by a prominent man. We were almost ashamed to admit that the truth had been spoken, but such was the case.
The lecture had been interesting and not too long, but during the last fifteen minutes of the address the audience and the speaker were disturbed at frequent intervals by persons leaving the room. At one time the speaker was so annoyed by the interruptions that he stopped and asked if he was talking overtime.
This is a regular occurrence at our afternoon convolutions and is one of the crudest evidences of provincialism. If University audiences conduct themselves in this manner what sort of an opinion must the men who come
here have of the people over the state? Thoughts of rotten eggs and bricks surely must creep into their minds. However, the audiences of Kansas are far more polite than those of University students.
Of course, you may have a fine reason for leaving but you surely knew before you went to the lecture how long you would be able to stay. If you are going out of curiosity you had better stay away. Let's break away from our small town habits and raise the plane of appreciation of University audiences.
The announcement that a certain K. U. boarding club serves an egg for breakfast twice each week, doubled its number of student boarders in less than two hours.
IN THE WORLD OF WISDOM
IN THE WORDS OF WISDOM
Once upon a time in the World of Wisdom there was .a School of Learning where those wishing to gain Knowledge might come and Study with those Learned Ones who had already gained some of the Golden Treasure.
It so happened in this School that all the Time could not be given up to the Study of one thing at a time, but each Student worked with several Teachers. This however was no Hindrance at this great School of Learning because these Teachers had lived in the World of Wisdom so long that they had learned that after all their own Particular Branch was but One Little Part in the whole Curriculum and that each Student must divide his Time among his Teachers. Knowing this Truth each Teacher did not give them Work that would require all their Time for the Preparation.
But this was in the World of Wisdom, at the School of Learning.
Jayhawk Squawks
Now that student ire has been aroused to the point of expression, when will it be aroused to the point of action?
Too many things never get beyond the point of expression, and consequently we have too much air and not enough substantial results.
A half-dozen plans have been secretly suggested which would in the minds of their authors result in a satisfactory solution of the problem now under discussion. In fact—well, just plain "guts" to offer them to those who hold the reigns of power.
And while the reigns of power are held by a body, which, in the minds of most students, is directly opposed to the student viewpoint, it is safe to surmise that they are as fair minded as a big majority of the student body.
There is a solution to the problem, and none can deny that it is a big problem. The University Senate will meet the students half way if they are anything like the men that this colum believes them to be.
The Senate has acted as they saw fit, but they failed to hear the student side of taking such definite steps as were taken. If a guarantee of the suppression of any such rallys in the university would be a detrimental body of students," "Naughty Rallies" could be positively prevented in the future.
On the other hand, it would be for them a great victory that they could obtain in no other way. The students would be won to the admission of three important things: that after all "Naughty Rallies" are futile; that the students should be made available for and should control such outbursts; and that in the future leaders of and participants in them should be given the maximum punishment.
With the adoption of such a plan, and the reinstatement of the eight men, the Senate would not be showing itself whipped.
And if any did occur the student body would have no comeback at the Senate if they kicked everyone who was in the rally out of school.
We hate to admit it, but our observations lead us to believe that the average student is a pretty small potato. We saw a number of them soaking stamps off of postal cards given them by the University to send home as invitations to their fathers and mothers to visit us next week.
And none of those who were doing
these stunts stunt seemed in the
east ashamed.
Just as it is suggested that we double up next week to accommodate the home folks the announcement of "twin Beds" is seen in the papers.
Communication must be signed as evidence of good faith but names well not will be published.
CAMPUS OPINION
Hawk Squak in yesterday's Kansan says of paddling, "No one has suffered any injury from it and there are innumerable instances where it has accomplished some good." We fail to agree with him that he was more hardworking than one freshman who weighs less than ninety pounds who was paddled so continuously and persistently that he was compelled to eat his meals off the mantel for over a week. And besides, the paddling was not done by a near relative, as in his younger days, but by several—mind blowing, not just one—sephopores.
Editor of the Kansan:
And, too, did you ever see a lone student going out with a pine board in his hand, yelling for meat, and when said meat was located, go up and deliberately do the paddling all together. If it wasn't unless it was a case of Mutt and Jeff.
There's a reason. Oh, how brave we are in a crowd. Try us and you'll see
The eyes are the windows through which the soul peeps. Today I saw a woman, not young by twenty years. But her eyes were those that read to the depths of my heart, and told me fearlessly that here was a woman who loved the grand old world and who loved life with all its motly array of humanity. She did not speak a word, but her eyes told this and more.
WHAT DO YOURS TELL?
COLOR
The negro is the most highly colored note in the American scene. Sticking a flower behind his ear and whistling gaily as he goes about his work, the negro not only not just our United States South, but the whole South that stretches toward the equator and believes that music and happiness and sunshine and love and a full belly are more to be desired than the quality of the reluctant and arid North.
American life, like American humor, is dry. The national picture needs all the unction, all the fatness that a disgraceful, charming race like the blacks can add to it. The negró has already given us all the national music we possess. And his love of color is a thing to be as grateful for us we are for the same quality in the Sicilian or the Andalusian. His genius and grace are abundant and elegant effect to be produced with the vocabulary of King James version, may make him in some future day the sacred custodian of English when slang and newspaper language have entirely supplanted the beautiful old tongue in the white mouth—The New Republic.
SHOULD WOMEN PROPOSE?
Again the field of men's sacred rights has been invaded. "Should women propose?" asked a serious-minded woman, or on behalf of someone she thought of.
To satisfy our own curiosity, we canvassed the campus for sentiment. We asked the same momentous question that was asked us, "Should women propose?" and received the following illuminating replies:
It seems that ever since man was man, woman has wanted to share in his activities, and whether you believe it or not, woman has always been successful in convincing him that she knew what she was talking about. Gentle, kind, sympathetic, and unselfish man has always yielded to woman's entreaties. He has given her the opportunity of being helped, he makes a place for her in business; he has given her the vote, and now he stands ready to grant her the opportunity of proposing should she request it.
Young married man-still gallant: "All queens should have the privilege of proposing." (Meaning, of course, all beautiful American girls.)
K. U. serious-minded youth went off in a corner to think about it. After half an hour of thought, he said: "A courtship usually lasts three or four years. In that length of time a woman surely has an opportunity to have had her what? Yes, but if she'd had the opportunity in the beginning, the courtship needn't have lasted three or four years!
Cross old bachelor, gruffy: "It might beat the single tax—can she
Old married man—springing universally witty remark of married men: "If women hadn't been proposing all these many years, there wouldn't be so many married men today." And then, become serious, he scowled and said: "I had a proposal once and nothing ever made me so sore." (Unbelief on our part. He might have been overwhelmed, but never sore—it's not the nature of man.)
Happily married woman, seriously:
"Leave things as they are. Let well
enough alone." That's all right—but
she's married.
School girl, amid giggles that floated off Mt. Oreand: "I think it would-be-love-ely."

Every student on the Hill has probably planned on what Xmas gifts he will present to his various friends and relatives this year.
If purchased here in Lawrence with the stamp of "your college town" upon them—won't these gifts carry more feeling—more interest—more satisfaction than if they came from the stock of your local merchants?
So we say that "your gifts will mean more" if they are purchased in Lawrence. Think it over and you will agree with us.
The Lawrence merchants are already displaying their Holiday stocks—and they all seem to be exceptionally well prepared this year, so plan on doing YOUR Xmas shopping before going home.

SOPHS SHOW UP BEST AT SCRIMS

Class Football Has No Attraction for Upperclass.
The inter-class football practice has not come up to expectations. The seniors had two men out for practice and Kabler and Cowill were the only coaches that reported. They are not backing their class, either from lack of interest or lack of the ambition necessary for a football man.
The juniors did not show up much better than the seniors, they are getting too old and dignified to play such a child's game as football. They are far more interested in "fussing" the ladies. That is a man's task that could not be expected to compare favorably with more football. Heath and David have coaches and驱 drew what material they had on formation work. Shelly and Frank showed some talent at quarter and backfield.
The sophomores undoubtedly had the best showing at yesterday's practice, and were going good under Hump Wilson's coaching. They are being helped by the sophomores and shows promise at forward passing. Casey and Steward showed up good in the back field and from all present indications the sophomores are sure to win the inter-class games. They have no false starts, they have little star stars and are still young enough that they are not ashamed of work on the football field.
The freshmen had plenty or men out for practice, but they were a little short on football players. Out of the forty men that reported for practice, one man showed signs of having football before. Nudelson held his own in the back-field. If the team is fortunate enough to obtain ten more men like Nudelson they will be able to compete with some degree of success.

STUDENTS PROTEST
ACTION OF SENATE
Alfred Hill, correspondent Topeka Capital—In my mind the president of the Student Council and the presidents of the classes are at fault for the fact that eight University students are under suspension for two days. In Kansas today, several of these officers made statements of criticism.
But they have taken no helpful action.
When the investigation of the rally was under way, or after the announcement of the punishment, why could not these officers have used their positions to make a fair proposition to the Senate?
They could offer to secure the pledge of the student body to countance no more naughty rallies. In return for this pledge, let the eight suspended students return to their studies.
Is it not possible that the Senate and the special disciplinary committee that made the investigation, would have accepted such a proposal?
So far the students who hold the important elective offices, have outlined no plan to bring any results. Criticism of the faculty members with no definite object is hurtful rather than helpful. Criticism is not going to make the Senate change its action.
Maybe it is not too late for the president of the Student Council and the class presidents to fulfill their duties as elected officers and act as a representative for students at the student body in conference with the powers that be.

FRESHMAN BREAKS NOSE
IN GYM AND GOES HOME
While turning a "French flip" in the gymnasium Friday morning, Wilber Worley, e20, slipped and in his knee wounded by a knee with such force that the bones of his nose was seriously shattered. He was unable to find a doctor in the building on account of the holiday, so he called a taxi to take him down town.
Because of the impossibility of wearing glasses over such a bandaged hoe he accompanied his brother home and returned until after the Christmas vacation.

REGULARS MAKE GOOD SHOWING
Basketball Men Run Away From Scrubs—Quizzes Keep Players Busy
Basketball fans were much pleased by the work of the Varsity five during scrimmage last night. Although several members of the squad did not report for practice the regulars, Gibbons, Kauder, Lytle, Wilson and Uhrlaub, galloped away from the football boys who were handicapped by lack of practice. Good passing and accurate goal shooting on the part of the first team forward, Kevin Varsity, showed up well. On the defense Lindsey showed up well. Shinn made several crack pot-shots from the center of the court.
Coach Uhrlaub's freshmen, held the Varsity men down fairly well during the latter part of the practice after the second sound had left the floor.
A large number of the men did not report for practice on account of quizzes. Next week Coach Hamilton plans to put the squad through a stiff work out as many of the men will not remain for practice in the holidays.
The men show more interest, and competition is keener than at any time this season. With support and interest from the students the Kansas squad will come back to its old time form on the basketball court.

CHORAL CONCERT UNUSUALLY GOOD
Prof. Arthur Nevin's Conduct ing Real Feature of Last Night's Performance
"The best musical event of the season," is what they were saying this morning of the Choral Union's concert. And he吊坠是 well founded.
The University of Kansas has a great choral leader in Professor Arlwin Nevin. He plays upon his chorus—draws it in and leads it out—as a piano artist emphasizes his notes by holding the organ. The trailler coaxes the most delicate shades and the heaviest of ponderous notes from his players. The phrasing in last night's concert, particularly the 'delicate shades of tone volume, and the sensitive diminuendes and accentuates the expertness of the conductor. The voice, it is true, could have been better; but their direction could not. The singers gave excellent interpretation to every number, and their "attack" was especially good. Few groups of vocalists shadens present in last night's music.
Mme. Blanche Trelease, the soloist, was not the feature of the concert. Her voice is sweet, and free of harshness, and her personality is a charming one. She interpreted well, and her audience was entirely favorable. Nevertheless, it was the work of the chorus which was the feature of the performance. Mme. Trelease's rendition of Sommerwell's "Birds in the High Desert" was perhaps her best number. Her German songs were unusually distinct.
Professor Nevin's own composition. "Daybreak," was the best received of the choral numbers. The music, to which is adapted the words of a Long-fellow poem, is exceedingly melodious, and the number was excellently sung The 100 voices sounded as one, so perfect was their harmony. The "Irish Folk Song" by Bouse was also very favorably received.

FOUL SHOTS
Coach Uhrlaub's tyros met a new style of basketball at practice last night as the gang from the football squad combined many of the features of football blocking, catching and shooting, and game. The new mer brought much enthusiasm into the practice which was mighty good to see.
Dutch Uhrlaub, is the handman of the squad. Last year he played at guard but this season he has been shifted back and forth; one time at defense and one time at defence Dutch has ganks of fight and is getting away fine this season.
Shinn was right, last night. He seems to be a demon when it comes to shooting goals. From any angle the ball drops into the basket, for him. He plays the game as he did football, hard and fast.
Although the football men had lots of wind, it was a treat to see them after ten minutes of scrimmage. Lindsey played like a whirlwind until he lost his wind then he played safety guard while Wilson took his place until he was all in. Football is a hard game but not so strenuous as basketball as it is played in this section of the country.
The regular squarad has been practicing for over a month and the new material will give much more life to the scrimmages. Competition will be held next on it. The games will show how much of the calibre of the team this year.
The frosh are making the Varsity
five hump every night. Coach Uhrlauz has his men working better than any first year squad has for a number of years. Several men from McCarty's football aggregation showed up fairly well last night. Mandeleve, the defensive coordinator will help the defense to a considerable extent. Debt claims that the first year men will beat the Varsity before the first of the year.
Captain Nelson has been doing good work at his old position this season. The knee which slowed him up to some extent last year is in far better shape to stand the hard drive of the basketball season.

INCOME BILL UP
IN CHAPEL FRIDAY
Important Issue Will be Explained Fully at Convocation
TO REPRESENT THE STATE
Each County Will Have Section For Its Students—Good Program
The County Club Convocation will be held tomorrow morning at 10:10 in Fraser Chapel, Chancellor Strong, Prof. C. A. Dykstra and Willard Glaeser for the Permanent Undergraduate Bill to the University. The band will furnish music.
The chapel will be divided into counties to represent the state, each county being named so that the students may sit under the banner of their own county. The western part of the state is called the chapel, the northern part, in the northern part of the Chapel and so on.
WORK TOGETHER FOR BILL
Circulars describing the main features of the Income Bill will be given out at convocation. According to W. Y. Morgan, lieut-governor, and E. T. Hackney, of the Board of Administration, the success of the Permanent Income Bill depends largely upon the interest shown in it by the students of the state institutions. Pres. H. J. Waters, of the Agricultural College he withdrew his will in cooperation with the University of Kansas in getting the bill before the legislature in favorable shape.
K. U. BACKSLIDING
The Men's Student Council at Manhattan has also stated its willingness to work with K. U. and the other state schools in connection with body towards the proposed bill will be determined to a great extent at this meeting tomorrow.
At the meeting of the County Club Union last night attention was called to the fact that the University has been building new buildings years ago, while at the same time the enrollment has increased 50 per cent. It was pointed out that North College, Snow Hall, and the Journalism Building, all three new buildings are needed.
WILL CALL ON LEGISLATORS
Other universities with relatively the same enrollment as the University of Kansas have not only many more, but far more adequate buildings than K. U. and their teaching staffs. But in these states there is a law similar to the one provided by the proposed Permanent Income Bill.
Paul R. Greever, president of the Men's Student Council, suggested at the meeting that a committee from the Council and the Union work together to form a committee to serve as senator in every county in the state be interviewed before the session of the coming state legislature. Every delegate to the County Club Union is requested to select five men and women to fill the role, because the legislators from their county.
Any information about the Income Bill or the county clubs can be had at the new office of the County Chai in the alumni office, Fraser Hall.
WILL CONSIDER REQUEST
Disciplinary Committee to Discuss Petition of Council
The disciplinary committee of the University Senate received the petition of the Men's Student Council this afternoon and will consider it at a special meeting as soon as possible, according to Prof. D. L. Lee, dean of the university's journalism department. No action could be taken at the time the petition was presented today but it is probable that the request will be considered at once. After a careful consideration of the request the committee will report to the Senate and in the process will grant a special meeting of the Senate will be called next week.
"I am glad to see that the sentiment of the student body is against such rallies as the one we are called upon to deal with," said Peer Grosz of the disciplinary committee. "We will give the request of the Men's student Council our careful consideration as soon as possible. However, the committee has argued in favor of the disciplinary situation before the action was taken last week.
"Before taking that action we consulted with forty universities and colleges over the country. This was the punishment given in most of these schools while the president was administered. In those cases, the students are expelled and cannot enter any university in the country."

The committee offers no special attractions other than good music, but a good dance is assured. The other members of the committee in charge of the dance are Paul Diehl, Joe Mahn and Jim Tate.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 7, 1916.
HIGH STANDARDS ARE NECESSARY
David R. Porter Tells Students of the Value of a Standard
"The Value of a Standard," was the subject of a heart to heart talk given last night by David R. Porter, chairman of the Y. M. C. A. international committee, before the members of the University Y. M. C. A. and other students.
"The greatest danger that the average student faces is the peril of not having a high standard," said Mr. Porter. "We see student here that are satisfied if they merely 'get by.' There is the type of a student who comes from the little two-by-four high schools where they have been considered teachers." He teaches that type anything. They think that they know it all and as a result fail to make good either on the athletic field or in their courses.
"There is the other type who come with very high ideals and are willing to sacrifice and pay the price to reach them. There are two factors that we ought to consider in forming our horizons, namely dimensions or the breadth of our horizon. Some of our horizons are just as wide as our hat brims, frats, university or states. It is time the students began to think in world terms.
URGES HIGH STANDARDS
SHOULD THINK IN WORLD TERMS
"We are living in the most tragic year in the world since the time Jesus Christ was nailed on the Cross. And we need a standard as broad as the world to contemplate the enormous amount of suffering that is and will exist in Europe during these next few weeks, we are watching a *Europa* on the Cross."
"Our standard must not be only broad but also high and lofty. We get most of our standards from the crowd we associate with."
FEW CHANGES IN RULES
New Basketball Rules Vary Little From Last Year
"No great changes have been made in the 1917 basketball rules," said Doctor Naismith, the originator of basketball, in an interview after his return from the conference of basketball officials in Kansas City.
The most important change in the rules this year is in the position o. the center. The new rule states: "If the ball is at center, the center is at liberty to take any position he may choose as long as he is on his side of the circle and has his hand behind his back. Also, the center will be in the ball after the ball has been tapped."
A few other changes have been made, but are of a minor character, such as the requiring of a back board which must be away from the wall and the permission granted to the referee to ask for the assistance or opinion of the umpire, but neither can contradict the decision of the other.
This morning Doctor Blackmar attended a conference called by Gov.ernor Arthur Capper for the purpose of considering the revision of state and county governments, and matters of efficiency in government.
Professor Blackman went to Topeka from Wichita, where he has been a professor of the Kansas Conference of Charities and Corrections. He gave a talk before this body Tuesday night on the form of Prisoners Through Labor."
Dean Blackmar will return to Lawrence tomorrow morning. Profts. Cumberland and W$_2$. B. Codenhafer have had charge of his classes during his absence.
Dean F. W. Blackmar will deliver an address tonight before the Public Service Association in Topcka on "The Permit or Indeterminate Franchise."

CLEVER FOOTBALL PROGRAMS
Sanitation Committee Meets
Many unique features have been planned for the party, but Managers Bond and Gaitskill refuse to disclose them. One secret has leaked out—the programs will be in the shape of small footballs. It is said that the leather covers for them were secured inside the ballrooms and footballs used by the K. U. squad during the season which has just closed. Tickets for the event have been selling rapidly, and the managers expect a crowd which will fill the small F. A. U. Hall. Many additional tickets were sold yesterday when it was announced that the party would be held in F. A. U. rather than in the downtown hall is much superior to that in Robinson.
The sanitation committee of the University Health Service is meeting in Room 102 of Dyce Museum this afternoon at 4:30. This committee has been meeting in the gym but the difficulty of finding a vacant room there necessitated changing the place of meeting. Supervision over the sanitation on the University campus is in the hands of this committee.

ENGAGES IN STATE SERVICE
The state service work of the University should especially interest anamnesis and public health, the University is conducting the field work of the State Entomological Commission; that the University maintains laboratories for chemical and bacteriological examination of water; that the University is engaged in the examination of the clays of the state and the determination of their fitness for the fine and coarse textures; that the bacteriology is engaged in study of chemical problems of interest to industries of Kansas; that by legislative enactment it is the duty of the University to examine samples of food and drugs for their purity; that the University has in its custody the sets of standard weights and measures of the states; that they design a state sealer, who is a member of the faculty, tests weights and measures in enforcing the laws governing commercial standards, and lastly that there is an engineering experiment station in which numerous experiments with Kansas building stone, brick and stone for paving, the purification of sewage, the properties of soil, the aeration conditions of metering appliances for municipal services are being conducted.
CARRIES ON SURVEYS
Several surveys carried on by the University will interest the parents if they accept the students' invitation to visit here. A biological survey of the waters of botany, zoology, and entomology. A geological survey is being carried on through field expeditions sent out annually. The surveys of the waters of the state is being made by the University in conjunction with the United States Geological Survey and the State Board of Health.
The museums of the University never fail to attract favorable criticism. The entomological collections comprise about 26,000 species and 300,000 specimens; the botanical collection contains 10,000 identified and labeled specimens; geology is represented by specimens in economic, petrographic and mineralogical groups; the zoological collections are rich and varied; the classical museum contains a collection of casts of Greek and Roman sculpture, fasciate reproductions, artistry, original coins and photographs.
MUSEUM IS OF INTEREST
The geologists have invented a new harmless game to entertain themselves between classes. They first take all the hats and caps from the hooks on the wall and then see if they can land on the distance of ten to fifteen feet. Francis "Shorty" Martin holds the "record up-to-date."
The work of the University Extension Department should prove interesting to the mothers and fathers and the students should take their parents on an inspection trip to this department.

MAN WHO NEVER CHARGED
IS IN THE UNIVERSITY
An interesting fact has been discovered in the character of Julius Krebs, a junior engineer who lives near the U.S. border should feel proud of, and he probably is, because few college students can boast of the same thing. Krebs has never in his entire life charged any-one—not even so small a bill as five cents.
Thus the University of Kansas sets the record for achievement in the fact that it possesses such a student, and challenges the other universities of the country to produce a man who can equal the record of Krebs.
WANT WOMEN TO PAY PARTY DUES
Managers Ask That Junior Women Pay Own Prom Dues
The women of the junior class should feel that the Prom is their party in the opinion of Howard Fleeson and Harry Montgomery, Prom managers. "We are making appointments with the sororities and other organizations," said Fleeson this morning, "in an effort to impress upon the junior women that they should not allow the men to bear all the responsibilities for their years the men as a rule paid not only their own dues but those of their partner, a condition which is hardly consistent with modern ideals of sex equality."
The junior dues are $3.00, paymen may be deferred till after the holidays but the managers will circulate all students, who are planning to attend the party, will be asked to sign. These blanks will be for the purpose of ascertaining approximately how many intend to go to the Prom.
Some have expressed surprise that the date of the Prom has been set so early but the managers explain that this is due to mid-year examinations, basketball and Lent, which interfere with elaborate social activities from the middle of January to the latter part of April.
ALUMNI PROUD OF TEAM
Chicago Association Sends Best Wishes to Players
The Chicago Alumni Association, K. U.'s most active alumni association, is proud of the football team. The following letter was received yesterday from Homer Hoyt, president of the Kansas. By the editor of the Kansan.
"We were naturally disappointed over the outcome of the Missouri game, but nevertheless we all thought that this year's team was one of which we could all be proud. We have not yet learned the details of the game, but we know from the frequent football upsets of the past season that we have the team. It is almost impossible for a team to win all its big games. Kansas undoubtedly had to use a lot of plays to beat Nebraska which showed her hand to Missouri. I know in 1912 Kansas won from Missouri because she lost a hard-luck game to Nebraska. The team had something in reserve for the last game which he or she unprepared for. The 1916 K. U. team was the same one. We send every man on it our best wishes. Here's to the team."
Sincerely yours,
HOMER HOVT.

PETITION SENATE FOR NEW HEARING
Men's Student Council Would Present Reasons for Reconsideration of Sentence
REFERRED TO COMMITTEE
Chancellor Strong Sends Council Resolution to Senate Committee
A request for permission to present reasons for a reconsideration of the punishment inflicted on the eight men recently suspended from the University for participation in the Naughty Committee, and a representative committee of the University Senate by the Men's Student Council this morning, as the result of a discussion of the matter at a meeting of the Council last night. The request was addressed to the Senate, but Chancellor Strong, to whom it was prepared, requested that the Senate committee, on whose recommendation the Senate unanimously acted.
"The disciplinary committee thoroughly investigated the matter before it made its report to the Senate, and after several meetings that body unanimously adopted the recommendations embodied in the report of the committee." Doctor Strong said this report is "the most important" the proper medium through which obtain a reconsideration of the question, and therefore I recommended to the Student Council that it confer with that body."
STUDENT COUNCIL ACTS
Following is the request handed the chairman of the committee by the Council.
We, the Men's Student Council of the University of Kansas, submit the following petition to the Senate of the University to urge that the sentiment arising in the student body over the fact that eight men were expelled from the remainder of the semester, with a loss of the seminary, be incorporated in the rally on October 27.
After due consideration and investigation, we, the Men's Student Council, join the student body in the belief that the measure taken was too severe and we recommend a reconsideration of your action.
The Men's Student Council is opposed to any such unauthorized rally, and we believe that the student body is opposed to such and would approve of some less drastic form of punishment.
We ask the privilege to appear before the Senate and present our reasons for a reconsideration of the punishment inflicted.
Signed,
Paul R. Greever,
President.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students by more than merely printing the news by standing for them and by play no favorities; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be intelligent; to be wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students; to play the students of the University.

FOR THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE
The University of Kansas today presents the appearance of a house divided against itself. On the one side is the faculty, as represented by the Senate and disciplinary committee; on the other, the student body. Co-partners in a great institution and with interests identical, the two have become factions arrayed against each other.
The Kansan believes this situation is as artificial as it is deplorable. The faculty is not—or at least certainly should not be—a body of military disciplinarians to hold the student body in restraint. A faculty man is not a policeman. Nor is a student an unruly outlaw chafing to break the hand of authority above him. This is going out of style even in high schools. It assuredly is out of harmony with the university idea.
On the contrary, students and faculty are rather co-workers striving towards a common goal—education. Both are interested in the preservation of order. Both are concerned in the problem of disruption of routine.
There was a Naughty Rally. Students and faculty suffered. And both should have taken part in the solution of the difficulty. Yet the faculty stepped in, single-handedly conducted an investigation, single-handedly sized up the situation, and single-handedly proscribed a penalty—a penalty which the majority of the student body and the Daily Kansan consider too severe.
Possibly the students were largely to blame for this. Two years ago the Student Council voluntarily surrendered its part in University discipline. In the light of facts in hand at present, the Kansan looks upon this as a grave mistake.
But be that as it may, the fact remains that the action of the disciplinary committee at beat represented only one party in the University.
For these reasons, the, Kansan urges:
First: That the Senate hold a joint meeting with a representative delegation of students to discuss the present dilemma and if possible to work out a solution satisfactory to both. For the personnel of this delegation, the Kansas suggests the regularly elected heads of the various student organizations—the classes, the schools, and other strictly University organizations.
Second: That this conference be in the near future—not later than next week.
Third: That in the future the problem of University discipline be placed in the hands of a committee made up of representatives from the faculty and student body.
The Kansan has confidence in the incinerity of the faculty. It also believes in the good faith of the student body.
The ambition of this paper is to bring the two together, and to promote a better understanding and spirit of comradeship between them.
They have to behave at Baker. The president of that university has decided that there shall be no more spooning on the campus, and to enforce his decision, he is having electric bulbs placed at all the favorite spooning centers.
COLLEGE FADS
Colleges are like everything else in this world. They have a number of peculiarities that stand out prominently. At the University of Kansas the most noticeable are the Engineers' boots, Senior Laws' canes, and last year's graduates. At the Journalists, the thump of the Engineers' boots echoing through the halls is a familiar sound on the Hill. A person strolling on the campus frequently will hear a gentle tapping on the walk. He will turn to the door with a look at his heels. But to his surprise it is only a Law out with his cane. One of the most entertaining sights on the Hill is to see a Law trying to master the use of his cane. A stranger is liable to be startled by a swishing sound, but his fears are heightened. You're likely to try drum up a few news items for the last edition of the Kansan. Such is life on the Hill.
You rarely hear a student talks about the good old days when there were no note books left by preceeding classes.
LOST?
There were criticisms and reports and reviews for the morrow—but the day was too wonderful. It was one of those beautiful d. ys of Indian lands, where she lived in the brightness of whose sunshine invited to walk. So lessons were thrown aside, and a whole half day was frittered away in strolling along, seeing new scenes or new aspects of old ones, discovering quaint and picturesque homes about which the day could cinderlinger and weave tales.
But all to no purpose, the day was fritted away, and not a lesson prepared! Fritted away? Maybe! But in the storehouse of the memory archive you have while reviews and themes and reports are long since forbidden.
COURTESY
Courtesy is one of the tests of a true gentleman or lady. Some people consider it rather superficial, something to be put on at certain times, like "company manners." But genuine courtesy comes from within, not just in front of people. The rush of this busy life forges the art of being polite. For they haven't time! Do you always think of the other person when you should? Do your always help others when you have the opportunity? Do you always retain the same unperturbulent state of mind no matter what hapens to happen. Problems include many, many things too numerous to mention.
A man is judged by his actions. It makes a difference whether he is courteous and polite or rude and impolite. For courtesy is the true test of character, and "the inseparable companion of virtue."
Jayhawk Squawks
Suggestion for the disciplinary committee—Why not keep a more rigid watch on the studies to see that not one of that species goes unpunished after putting sand in another's chewing gum?
Was it the Sour Owl that gracefully cook while the game was in progress?

And furthermore, a quietous has been placed on rallies, especially those of extemporaneous origin.

CAMPUS OPINION
Communication must be written at evidence of good faith not names will not be pursued without the writer's consent
SWAT EM!
Editor Daily Kansan:
And now comes the inevitable whine because the disciplinary committee has seen fit to mete out deserved punishment to several students who, not wanting to work them, were forced to work by starting a so-called rally.
By the action of a few ring-leaders, two thousand students were interrupted in their morning's work when a rally had been called for later in the day. Figuring that this would be the last such event each, the total cost of the disturbance was around five or six hundred dollars.
If leaders of such lawlessness were allowed to go without severe punishment, what would become of discipline? Note that I said 'severe'. Light punishment for a serious offense is only an enforcement of it.
No other question should be allowed to cloud the big point of discipline. The manner, the trial of the disciplinarian, the main issues in the lawyer's quibble. To raise a howl about details of the conduct of the disciplinary committee not only ten1- to discredit the members personally, but flavors of trying to beg the question.
Future cases of similar nature will be judged by the penalties inflicted in this one. And the question of more cases arising depends upon the fact that this instance, and the steadfastness with which it is carried out.

The University of Washington lost four of its valuable musical instruments from the Chinese section of the museum, November 14, when a thief reed flutes and two stringed relics. This is not the first time that the collection has been tampered with. Only last summer a valuable Japanese tapestry was discovered at the art room. It is feared that students are responsible for these thefts.
The Associated Student Players of the University of Washington are making plans for a home grown moving picture film of one real. The characters will be written by the University campus, the characters will all be active collegians, and the scenario will be written by a student. The object of the production is to promote the creative arts on the campus. In this presentation has not yet been set.

THIS BARITONE MADE IN AMERICA
Cecil Fanning Who Sings Tues day Never Studied Abroad
The third concert of the University Concert Course will take place in Robinson Gymnasium, Tuesday evening, December 12, and will consist of a solo recital, a spoken tone, accompanied by H. B. Turpin, pianist. This concert will no doubt be one of the best of the course, accented by the singing work, and his super voice.
Mr. Fanning's worth as a singer is plumply shown in the fact that he has given as many as eight recitals in Boston in one season. This record was broken only when he appeared twelve times in Columbus, Ohio, within eight months. With the exception of this recent success, the lowest number of appearances in one town ever made by a single recital artist.
"Mr. Fanning is one of the best known American baritones," said Dean Harold Butler this morning. "His voice is an exceptionally fine, high baritone of beautiful quality, and his art as a singer makes him one of the most attractive artists on the concert stage. He is unique in that he can teach the Artist can teaching. While he has frequently appeared abroad in recitals, he has never studied anywhere but in America."
Mr. Fanning and Mr. Turpin have been together for ten years, and Mr. Fanning refuses to sing to the accompaniment of any other pianist. Their work together is considered almost ideal.
His program for Tuesday night is an especially attractive one, as it is made up of classic French opera airs, songs by the greatest German composers, some very taking French folk songs, a group of favorite American songs.
ERECT MEMORIAL TABLET
Memory of Professor Robinson Will Be Preserved
Plans are being made for the erection of a memorial tablet to the memory of David H. Robinson, professor of Latin and Greek in the University for twenty-five years. Eastern artists are at work on designs for a suitable tablet; probably based in Room 210, Fraser Hall, where Professor Robinson taught for twenty-five years.
Practically everyone took Greek and Latin twenty-five years ago so Professor Robinson came into contact with nearly every student in the class, and he loved by his students, who are now anxious to erect a worthy memorial to his memory. Two hundred dollars has been given without solicitation, and every student of Professor Robinson will be expected at conference committee hopes to have the tablet in place by commencement time. Members of the executive committee are: Mr. F. E. Riggs, Mr. Wilbert D. Ross, State superintendent of Public Instruction, Thomas Johnson, Thomson and Mr. Scott Hopkins.
Professor Robinson was one of the three men who opened the University in 1865. He wrote a history of the University. He died of typhoid in the summer of 1895, when on the point of leaving for the University of Colorado, to give a course of lectures in summer school.
PROFESSOR DOUTHIT IN
CHICAGO FOR Ph.D. DEGREE
Prof. and Mrs. Herman Douthitt left yesterday for Chicago, where Professor Douthitt will be examined today for his doctor's degree.
Mr. Douthitt received his training in vertebrate paleontology under Professor Williston, who is recognized as the world's authority on reptiles, both amphibians and birds. Williston was formerly connected with the University of Kansas as dean of the School of Medicine. He taught anatomy, histology, paleontology, and general zoology in the days when all the specimens were united in one department.

LOAN FUND BOOSTED $116
BY DIRECTORY GIFTS
The student loan fund was booster$116 by nine o'clock this morning as a result of contributions from students, employees and faculty reterories. The contributions, which have been coming in all week, have ranged from five cents to five dollars. One merchant took this opportunity to pay five dollars paying five dollars for his directory.
The handy pocket size of the directories has received much favorable comment from the students although few of them carry the book around with them. The lack of a church directory, the list of officers of organizations and a few other details are lamented by a few.

Necessity Mothers Invention
THE USE OF BEETS for sugar making came about as the result of the stringency of cane sugar during the Franco-Prussian war. Thus the scarcity of one product mothered the invention of a substitute.
AND SO DOES NECESSITY work its phenomenon in the newspaper field. Fourteen years ago, the DAILY KANSAN was published only at weekly intervals, but as time went on the University enrollment became larger and happenings on Mount Oread more plentiful.
THE RESULT was the UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN as the school paper recording all of the news on the "hill" with timely promptness and accuracy. Are you a subscriber of the KANSAN? If not, phone K. U. "Double Six", and it will be delivered to your address from now on until June for $2.25.

DEBATE U-BOATS WITH NEBRASKANS
Jayhawkers Meet Huskers in Lawrence and Lincoln December 13
The Kansas debaters will meet the Nebraska squad in the first word battle of the season Wednesday, December 13. Kansas will uphold the affirmative in Fraser Chapel at four o'clock in the afternoon, and the negative in Lincoln. The question for debate is, "Resolved, that submarine warfare on commerce, as now conducted, is incompatible with the military and that combat nations in regard to non-combattant enemies."
"I got such a fine taste of Nebraska corn when I saw the game at Lincoln, November 18, that a second meal would not come amiss," said Harold F. Matoon, captain of the K. U. affirmative debaters, today, in anticipation of the event. "Last year Nebraska defeated Kansas with 2 to 1 decisions at both ends of the line, and it was not as easy as I'd think. I don't wish to assume a boastful attitude, but our prospects for victory were never better."

FRESHMEN ROMP ON REGULARS
Varsity Basketball Squad Had "Off" Night—Frosh Making Good This Year
The Freshman squad under the tutelage of Dunkirk Uhlau rubped away from the varsity regulars at a time when the tyres were "right" and made the best of their opportunity to take the regulars to a defeat. As usual the first year men were given a handicap in county points but these were not needed
The regulars explain the situation by saying that they were "off." Quizzes, minor bruises and other injuries are shown in the show. However, the coaches are not worying over the situation for the showing in the earlier practices has raised their hopes beyond the attitude of the freshmen on one lucky night.
The freshmen squad this year is of first class caliber. At the first of the season the first year men were unable o hit their stride but_ after a few
weeks practice they are able to hold their own consistently with the varsity. The five men making up the regular freshman squad last night were Barter and Ritchie, forwards, Hoekivam, center, Knowles and Miller guards. Several substitutions were made in the grame.
The early part of the practice last night was devoted to passing, dribbling, and goal shooting. The freshness of the workouts separate workouts along these lines.
The number of men out for the squads is not as large as the coaches would like to see. Sever men from the football squad has added considerably to the regulars number while the first year football men are expected to come out later for the tyro squad.
Judging from the crowds that visited Dyche museum Thanksgiving day is seems to be the most popular place on the campus. There were 2017 people inside the Museum at different times Thursday. This number is not an approximation but by actual count Mr. C. D. Bunker, curator of the Museum, had some one hundred in all day long. Between 1:30 and 2 o'clock 385 people went into the building.

STUDENTS HEAR OF INCOME BILL
NUMBER 63.
Urge County Clubs to Work for Legislative Measure by Meeting Representatives
GIVE STARTLING FIGURES
Chancellor Strong Compare Kansas Appropriations With Michigan and Wisconsin
"It seems to be agreed that we need a settled and permanent income for the University and other state institutions," said Prof. C. A. Dykstra, in his discussion of the Permanent Income Bill before the County Club Convocation this morning in Praser Chapel. "The proposed permanent Income Bill will allow a systematic development for K. U., and it will take the granting of the income of the state schools out of politics."
Professor Dykstra showed that to get the bill passed in the coming legislature, the legislators must be convinced that such a law will be of benefit for these state institutions. He gave the opinion of one of the legislators who said that the average legislator was merely a $3 politician for fifty days. In that time 2,000 bills come up, giving the legislature barely time to prepare what a bill would be shifted from the shoulders of the legislator.
FACTS TO REPRESENTATIVES
Professor Dykstra said that the bill would not get anywhere unless there was a strong organization over the entire state. He showed that the students themselves had it in their hand, and that the bill was to become a law.
Willard Glascio, president of the County Club Union, speaking for the student body also emphasized the fact that to do efficient work the students individually would have to see that the essential facts of the bill were brought before the legislators in their respective counties.
FIGURES ON MICHIGAN
"If the legislature knew it would be better for the state, the legislature, and the state schools it would gladly accept, they must be up to the students to see that the legislators are shown the merits of the bill. It is imperative that each student take the matter up individually with the representatives of the state."
Chancellor Strong quoted some rather startling figures showing the relative amounts of money spent by the state of Kansas and Wisconsin and Michigan on their school towns, and that the state's income was most readily shown at the University of Michigan where more than a million and a half dollars were given the school by the state but only $9,000 had to be appropriated because of the existence of the mill tax law (1912-13, 1912-13,
TO APPEAR IN CONCERT
The feature of the convocation was the order of seating, the students sitting in sections according to counties. The management of the conference was in the hands of Willard Glasco, H. C. Hangen, M. P. Wear, and H. F. Perkins.
K. U. Band Spends Fortieth Meeting in Preparation
"We believe that we are now prepared to give one of the best band concerts that the University Band has given for several years," said J. McCanesias after the band had insisted for fourth practice Wednesday night.
Heretofore, these concerts have not been very well attended, but this year some special features are offered that will make the concert well worth attending. The special features of the program will be a violin solo by Miss Edna Hopkins, a saxaphone quartet, Selection Un Ballo in Maschera, Tales from Hoffman and three sections of McCanlies questions that will be especially good.
The concert will be given in Fraser

STATE MUSIC TEACHERS
NOW MEETING AT SALINA
The Kansas State Music Teachers' Association, now meeting at Salina, is taking a large number of the faculty of the School of Fine Arts and is in the midst of the annual meeting, and is open to any music teacher in the state.
Dean Harold Butler, Prof. Carl Preyer, Prof. Wort Morey, Prof. Joseph Farrel, and Mrs. Herman Olcott are attending. Professor Preyer at the piano and Professor Morse on the violin will give one of Professor Preyer's sonatas. Mrs. Olcott will sing some songs of Prof. Arthur Nevin's, and Professor Farrel will also sing.
STUDENTS SEND INVITATIONS HOME
Chance for Home Folks All Over State to Get Acquainted
Walk through the student district at 1300 any morning this week and you will see many post cards reposing among the letters in the mail boxes in the porches ready to be taken by the mail man. If you take a peek into the reading matter you will find the familiar words inviting Father and Mother to Lawrences for the next inclusive. For students are sending out the cards that were given to them by the Publicity Department.
That personal touch column is doing its work, too. Something is always added; something which the mother and mother. Occasionally the card tells Mother to come and let Father stay at home to tend to the chickens. But the majority of the cards invite both the mother and Mother to this Parents Week.
December 11 to 16 will be a regular de-acquainted week among Kansas folks. Two students, pales on the hill from each other, visit from each other as home towns go, will introduce Mothers and Fathers next week and Mothers and Fathers will exchange notes and greetings. And a better feeling will result over
Next week nothing will be strained in the matter of work. Professors will ask as hard questions as they are asking this week and their quizzes before the holidays will be as hard. Students will flunk as hard as they will. You can expect that they recite just as easily. As many dances will be held and as many hikes will be taken this next week as any week in the school year.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS FRIDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 8, 1916.

Hamilton's Basketeers Getting Ready for Opening of Season After Holidays
VARSITY WORKS
HARD FOR GAME
MUCH GOOD MATERIAL
Prospects Are Good for a Cham pionship Team This
Year
Now that the final curtain has been run down on the football season, interest in sports at K. U. has turned instinctively to basketball—a game that can be fun but can well afford to take stock in when it is considered that Jawahyer teams have been Valley champions most of the time and that the inventor of the very game itself is a member of our faculty. Th coaches have been busy with workouts and with daily workouts in progress, as possible to draw a line on the
Coach William Oliver Hamilton has an unrivalled record in the Missouri Valley for producing championship teams; and this year, with some exquisite coaching skills and hands, prospects are better than at any previous time. Last year the squad slumped noticeably; but the stars of that team are still in school, and there has been much good maturation from the freshmen of last season.
This year, too, Coach Hamilton has Potsy Clark, the idol of Illinois, for assistant; and Potsy has brought to the Jayhawkers his intimate knowledge of eastern tactics. Potsy has been a mentor to the practices since the close of the football season; and he promises to continue the good work.
is possible to draw a line on the
son's outlook.
POTSY COACHES
Last year's stars are showing up in much better form than they did last season. Captain Fat Nelson is in excellent condition after a summer spent in building log cabins and constructing telephone lines in the mountains of Colorado; and Gibbens, the smallest man on the squad and the biggest on the score book, is finding the hoop in sensational location of Oloffs football that to the squad—notably that of Shinn—has sent Kansas stock skyward. The football men inject a certain amount of football "rough stuff" into their play which is good in defensive work.
LONG PRACTICES
Practice last night lasted from seven o'clock until nine, during which time there was a lengthy work-out in passing the ball and in goal shooting, followed by a short one, if ever out every night of the week now. There will be no rest for the basketeers during the Christmas holidays. Instead of going home to partake of roast turkey and dressin' and such with the home folks, they then went to their weeklyouts in the gym. The early opening season on January 5 makes the Christmas practice necessary.
STICKY TAFFY ENTHUSES
Many Women Buy Tags for Junior Taffy-T舞蹈
Miss Enthusiasm, garbed in her best bib and tucker, is all ready to greet the women of the University at the Junior Girls' Taffy-Dance in Robinson Gymnasium, Saturday after three from until five-thirty, o'clock.
This is the first women's mixer of the year given by a class organization and well-managed plans promise a time of fun for all. Since taffy pulling will be one of the principal features of the day, easy clothes will be worn throughout. Constant smiles are the only requirements to meet the guest of honor.
SURE- IT'LL BE A FINE LITTLE SHOW
Those who do not dance will find plenty to do and good accented music to play. If you are on the Hill is invited. If she has not her tag, she can get one at the door.
Prof. E, W Murray, faculty representative, and Coaches Oclark, Clark and Hamilton are attending a Missouri Valley Conference meeting at Manhattan today and tomorrow. Schedules for basketball, track, and baseball will be arranged at this event and will include competitions between the various Valley teams will come up for settlement by the officials.

Senior Girls Mixer Tuesday
The first senior girls mixer of the year will be held Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Women's Rest Room in Fraser. This mixer is to be a song fest. "Come prepared to sing college songs," said Carolyn McNutt, president of the mixer committee.
Law Scrim In F. A. U. Hall To night One of the Big Events of Social Season
FOOTBALL SQUAD GUESTS
Blushing Ad Lindsey Will be a Headliner on the Elaborate Program
The students of the School of Law will pay their annual tribute to the football team tonight with the Law Scriem, one of the biggest formal parties of the year, in F. A. U. Hall. Preparation for the party has been completed and every indication presages one of the best scriens in recent years.
Every man on the football squad at the end of the season will be a guest of honor of the laws tonight, as well as the coaches and that grand old man of K. U. football—"Uncle Jimmy" Green. The pikersin artists of the past season will dischard their moleskins for dress suits, and men in red shorts. A month ago as mud-covered heroes will tonight be social lions attired in regulation dancing duds and vast expanses of white shirt bosoms.
A GREAT LITTLE SHOW
And while the football men themselves, attract a great deal of attention, there will be that "female of the species"—the K. U. co-ed--present in all the gloriousness of her new party gown. The laws, too, should attract some attention—especially if they wear their canes in connection with high hats and evening o'cans. And then there's be Ad Lindsey, the blushing captain of the 1916 Jay-hawkers—the man who'll get crimson shoes for his birthday. Then him on beating Nebraska and say: "Oh! So you're Ad Lindsey!" It'll be a great show, all right, all right!
So far as the party itself is concerned, Managers Bond and Gaitskill promise all sorts of exceptional features. Haley's six-piece saxophone orchestra from Kansas City will fulfill that mission; it will be a four course supper served in the U.A. D. uining hall; and decorations, programs, et cetera ad infinitum will be of the super-excellence of the superb. The party will begin at 8:00 o'clock with a reception in honor of the football team; the grand march will begin at 8:15; and dancing will be the order from 8:30 until 2:00 a.m. Saturday.
Though the party is given by the laws, any student in the University may attend by paying the five-dollar admission price. Those who did not secure tickets today can get them at the door tonight.

JAYHAWKER DUES NEEDED AT ONCE
But the Pictures Need Not be Turned In Until Middle of January
"Senior pictures and dues should be turned in at the Jahayawk office as soon as possible," Arnold Nordstrom, editor of the Jahayawk said this morning. "Our office is in the Museum, Room 102, and our office hours are from 9:30 to 10:30 and from 11:30 to 12:30 every morning."
"Every student on the Hill is invited to come to the Jayhawker office and give the staff any suggestions that will make the Jayhawker a better book. We have one of the new leather covers which will be used on the edition this year and, in will be shown at the Macy's. Most of the staff who are having trouble in getting material are urged to consult with the editor."
Dick Gelvin, business manager of the Annual said today that the time limit given to seniors to get theirpieces can be hardly be about the middle of January.
"There has been a misunderstanding among seniors in regard to the time when their pictures are due," said Gelvin. "Many having thought that it was necessary to hand them in before Christmas. Organizations not yet having dates, are urged to make sure they get their first part of January. About half of the senior picture collections already been taken and handed in. All persons that have had their pictures taken are asked to turn them in next week."

VACATION MAY BE ONE DAY LONGER
If Chancellor Grants January 2, Students Need Not Travel on New Year's Day
FIX NO PENALTY FOR CUTS
Individual Instructors Will Inflict Own Punishment for Cuts
The possibility of extending the Christmas vacation one day in order to permit students who otherwise night be compelled to travel New Year's Day in order to reach Law School, the school being considered by Chancellor Frank Strong. The power for such a prolongation of the holidays rests with the chancellor and his cabinet, to whom it was referred at a recent University Senate, but that body hesitates to establish such a precedent.
The vacation as scheduled will be one day longer than specified by the University calendar, founded on a rule of a former board of regents, which included the cabinet, doubts the advisability of extending it another day. On another such occasion which occurred during the time Dr. Strong has been Chan-ten University, not even the one day was granted; classes were resumed New Year's Day.
EXTRA DAY MAY BE GRANTED
ENTR DAY MAY BE GRANTED
"I shall consider the matter carefully, and extend my good wishes," and I may devise some means of extending the vacation one more day."
As the Senate has not yet acted upon the matter of punishment for pre-holiday and post-holiday cuts, such absences from class before or after the holiday will be dealt with by individual instructors. This question has been discussed at two meetings of the Senate, but, as no definite action has been taken, and there will be no further meeting holidays, it is probable that there will be no regulation effective in regard to cuts for this vacation.
PROFITS TO DEAL WITH CUTS
However, as in the past, instructors will be free to do as they choose with students who cut classes. Faculty members whom this question were referred were unanimous in advising that students who may wish to spend New Year's day at home, apply for excuses from their instructors and the dean of the school in which they are enrolled.

NEW BUILDING FOR K. U.
Methodist Church Will Erect a Structure Here
A new building for the University, is the news that Gordon Thompson, Methodist student pastor, brings back from Chicago where a meeting of the Methodist pastors of state universities is held in a part of the program outlined. In days' session for state universities throughout the country.
While the nature or cost of the building was not decided upon, Rev. Mr. Thompson believes that it will be a Bible hall or social room.
The building will be built by the members of the Methodist Church of Kansas which has nine hundred students enrolled at K. U.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students as they go further than merely printing the news from their kansas; to go farther than merely holding the news from their kansas holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be gentle; to be courteous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; to all, to serve to the University.
FRIDAY. DECEMBER 8,1916.
Two kinds of individuals people the
receive and those who take it.
K. U. ON TEST
The student body of K. U. will be on test next week as to its familiarity with the obligations of a host. Hospitality is, of course, an inherent quality. It springs from a certain attitude of mind which generally can be developed only in the home. It is not a routine or code of etiquette that can be committed to memory like a "French in 20 Lessons" book. Yet it is not merely an inherent quality. And its presence is very apt to be doubted unless there is some positive expression of it. Kansas is famous for its hospitality. Our fathers and mothers have left us a reputation to live up to. Parents' week will give us of this generation a chance to demonstrate that we can preserve the tradition.
BE A SPORT
This is the time of the year when those who announced their intention to sleep outdoors all winter begin sleeping inside.
Once there was a man who arose to speak without making an apology for his subsequent talk.
The new directories are out. They are serviceable. They are worth much more than ten cents to any student; yet they are given away free. Only the request has been made that a dime be left for each directory, to be added to the Student Loan fund to help someone who, perhaps, could not otherwise be in that directory. There are students who take their directories,—glad to get them—yet unwilling to help make someone else glad. They go away and laugh to think how they got their directories for nothing, and straightway band together and go downtown for a hilarious hour at a ten cent show.
BE YOURSELF!
No matter what the circumstances—be yourself. Whether with a magnate, a prize fighter, a minister, or a laborer—be yourself. If a rich man pats you on the back and brain-trained—be your infidle; if a prizefighter talks to you like a brother, don't assume the attitude of a worldly-wise sport; be yourself; if a minister takes you within his ken, don't put on an angel face and a seraphim air—be yourself; and if a laborer comes with his troubles and asks your course and asks him to do well and be yourself. In every circumstance, show your own good qualities—so often buried under a false exterior—and be yourself.
Some folks think praise is the only just comment.
ST. SIMON AND HIS PILLAR
ST. SIMON AND HIS PILLAR
"We run — fence — walk hard—
weary our poor lounge and
beams of our building muscles
we do not need. . . These muscles
are useful only to cart us around,
help us do slave work, or pound our
fellow men, yet we cultivate them
with care, with patience, and with
knowledge that we neglect our minds
nowadays for the development of our
bodies. Yet, how much experience
would we ever get, if it were not for these encumbering bodies that cart us around? The day of St. Simon and his pillar is past. The old theories of dualism are passe. The development of the body and the mind go hand in hand, each dependent upon the other. If a little more time were devoted to developing our senses, we would not be trailing about over the earth's surface quite so many washed-out, pale-eyed specimens of humanity.
BREEDING
Elderly men and women are often old fashioned and narrow. They have such queer ideas and don't know half the things that we University people know, such as the importance of a past age and it is so much fun to shock them and our newly acquired knowledge, to laugh over their foibles and narrowness. But once in a while comes a youth or maid who finds tenderness and chivalry in the old ideals, rather than mere conservatism, who can view the queer foibles with tolerance and affection, these young people who find
FICTION IN LIFE
Um-m·m? How good it all was,
fried oysters, grapefruit, fudge, lobster salad—a regular spread, such as blue cheese and the peaceful sleepers below. Then the next morning, that awful dark brown taste and heavy eyes, a flunk in a quilt of brown hair, makes these classies! This is the mid-week spread about which novelists rave.
Jayhawk Squawks
It's a little late in the game, but the team wants to take a shot at the Sour Owl.
The Sour Owl of this year is truly a bird puckled of its original smutty plumage, but it isn't painted as white as it was advertised.
The "Pepper Pot" and a number of other parts of the magazine bear the earmarks of the old Owl—and they are not the earmarks of a college comic paper that the University of Kansas would be proud to line up beside the Cornell Widow, the Yale Record, and the Harvard Lampoon.
(N. B. Yes, the writer got his'n in the "Pepper Pot.")
But the idea is fine, and the editors of the Owl are to be congratulated on getting a start in the right direction, even if they reach the goal on their first attempt.
The average American audience, it is sad to admit, likes about so much of the shady, but they want it with their own efforts. They offer an excuse for their reading it.
And with the end in view of catering to a university audience, the Sour Owl will never get across if it persists in groveling in the kind of rot that its predecessor made itself infamous for.
Kansas needs a good comic paper—there is a field for one, and the talent is here to put out one as good as any in the country, but it will never be there. It needs and draw first-class stuff if it gets its early practice on cheap vulgarity.
It looks as though the old maxim, "Better late than never," wasn't going to work overly well in the case of her having to jump starting in the case of the naughty rally.
Legal authorities say there is a case against the fraternity man who stole a can of shoe polish from down-town shine parlor and made freshman black his shoes with it for a month.
For every result, says the philosopher, there is a cause. Why is it, then, O ye saes, that faculty members ever strive for the essence of wit in their communications to the Kansan?
Now that we've hopped onto the owl Jour, we feel fetter. We don't say that we could have done better—or even as well—and we want to see another attempt in the near future. So does everybody else. —H. P.

MOTHER
The time will come when all seems bright
And Gloom around you hovers,
Oh! how you long with all your heart
I'll go there, I'm going to do it.
And you're mighty lonesome too.
When all the world does naught but
When things don't seem to go just right.
And you're feeling kinda blue,
When life to you is one big fight
I make myself lose to
And the world will smile once more,
When Gloom will take a mighty flight
and fly above the city.
Then a strange unrest around you'll
feel.
And you'll know there is no other, Who can her place on with her heart fill With your heart filled.
AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION Editor Daily Kansan:
CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent
CAMPUS OPINION
And you long to be with mother.
—Phoebe Ann.
The old saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure has been related to us so many times that we have long regarded it as the truth. In fact, the principle is applied by the majority of the public and business men in the successful conduct of business administration.
The latest act of the University Senate, however, seems to be along entirely different lines. Eight students were thrown out of the University for the remainder of the semester at a total cost to their parents of almost two thousand dollars as a "cure" for the naughty rally evil. The "cure" was not considered a wise decision and it wore to warn the students that expulsion would follow the next attempt to start an unofficial rally.
Now for the prevention. The Senate knew the day, hour and place where the naughty rally would start and the probable instigators. Representative members were to stop the attempts. Or, fifteen representative students, real leaders among men, could have been called to the office and their cooperation asked in stopping any attempt to break into the regular class room. They could have been on the spot and the rally would never have started.
Other means could have been used for the same purpose. At any rate, with a little precaution the University Senate could have saved considerable trouble and much unfavorable publicity.
LEFT ON THE BLACKBOARDS
Have you ever let your eyes wander to the blackboard during the course of a lecture, and wondered about the stray scraps of writing, on unfamiliar subjects, left there from preceding classes?
All sorts of miscellaneous ideas can be pieced together from such fragments of subjects with which you know nothing about them, by natural curiosity or unknown things leads you to try to work out actual knowledge from the vague hints presented—to build up pictures of all the scattered bits of knowledge.
In one room, for instance, you see a few sentences of Greek. You can enter any word, and the acquaintance with fraternity-houses doorplates, but you puzzle over the small letters, trying to piece out the spelling and the meaning of the
And this list of names—apparently of early and unfamiliar writers—with titles in quaint old English spelling. And a group of Spanish sentences which you can half translate from English to Spanish, in the list of dates, with a few names which bring up long-forgotten pictures from your high school history.
Here in another place is a confused-looking mass of mathematical signs, with strange symbols and groupings that are not clear. What does it all mean? you sigh.

THE WAY TO HAVE DATES PROPERLY
President of W. S. G. A. Gives Short Digest of Date Rule
RESTRICTIONS CLEARED UP
Violations of Association By Laws Due to Misunderstandings Says Miss Huffman
"A Library date is permitted by the customs of the W. S. G. A., but the man must not stay for a few moments' chat, nor is the couple allowed to stop for anything to eat on the way home. He is supposed to have helped in the Woman's Student Government Association, said this morning.
"This rule is more or less strictly observed," added Miss Huffman. "The greatest infraction of rules comes when the date rule is declared off by the Association for a rally or concert. Instead of going to the concert or a connection to a movie, one connects to a movie downtown. This is in opposition to the date rule which has been adopted by the women of the association.
WHEN RULE IS Suspended
The date rule is automatically suspend the lectures, examinations, games, the theater, and any affair of general interest to University students. But it is suspended only for that particular event, and any girl who attends any other function at the college or doctor of the rule of the W. S. G. A."
TIME LIMIT FOR DATES
The by-laws of the W. S. G. A. he says to say concerning the date rules:
TIME LIMIT FOR LAYER
Section 1 of Article 2 states that each woman should be closed not later than 10 o'clock on week nights. On Friday and Saturday night, the time limit is extended to 11 o'clock except in the case of formal dances of general interest.
Sunday night dates are limited to 10
WHEN DATES ARE PROHIBITED
The second section of this article permits student parties only on Friday and Saturday nights or on nights preceding holidays.
Section 35: Social engagements should not be made for nights of school days (after 8 o'clock) except on Friday or on evening classes.
"Boarding house dances held during the week from seven until eight o'clock are permissible, but these dances must end at eight," said Miss Huffman. "A majority of the violations of rules of the Association comes from a misunderstanding of the rules. I wish that every girl would get acquainted with the by-laws."

So many Christmas gifts are short lived in usefulness—the pleasure they provide is fleeting-often, New Year's day finds them "out of sight and out of mind."

Seniors Only Team That Fails to Show Excellent Form in Daily Practice
The first series of the inter-class games will be played Monday afternoon at three-thirty. The freshmen and the sophomores are scheduled to appear first, the junior-senior game to be played immediately after, if the seniors managed to get a team down on an account of the poor condition of the men, ten minute quarters will be played.
Coach Olcott has a difficult task in picking the fresh eleven from fifty raw recruits. Lack of beef and experience will cause them to bow to the sophs who continue to work like a college team.
Running punts and developing pass formations was the feature of the junior practice, Coach Wint Smith is working hard to develop a team which will give the other teams a run for the money.
The lack of sufficient football equipment is a great handicap to the interclass games as many of the men have to play in suits which would be a discredit to a high school aggregation. The spirit of the team, however, is excellent in spite of this fact, because the players furnishing part of their uniforms are almost unused and fifty suits have been checked out and there are no more available for men who still wish to participate in the games.

The League of Kansas Municipalities of the University Extension Division has outlined a comprehensive legislative program to submit to the commission the biggest thing which we will attempt to secure," said H.

A large numbers of the coming legislature," he added, "have a favorable of allowing the people of the state to vote on such an amendment."

The League is working for legislation that will secure citizen control and efficient administration of local government. "Incidentally, this will eliminate from the consideration of a bill any law that would allow a large amount of purely local legislation, allowing more time for matters of state wide interest," said Mr. Talbot. The program outlined by the League includes a bill to allow cities to adopt the city manager plan of municipal government by a vote of their people, just as the cities now have the right to adopt the commission form of municipal government by a vote of their people, said Mr Talbot. Any city desiring this form of government should have the power and authority to adopt it."

FOLKS ARE HERE FOR "SOME TIME"
But Cold and Snow May Cause Many Parents to Give Up visit
NUMEROUS THINGS ON TAP
K. U. Glad to Welcome Home
Folks—Table Is All
Not many fathers and mothers had shown up on the Hill today but the week is yet young. There are four days more. And many trains have yet to arrive. The "young blizzard" this morning added zest to the week. Climbing the slippery hill will be an extra joy to the folks from home.
Numerous entertainments are scheduled this week. The band will give its annual winter concert Thursday, March 27 at the hold almost every night. Charles Dillon, manager of the Capper farm publications will talk several times to journalists and others interested in his work. A make-up of his farm paper from Mr. Dillon. And Cecil Fanning's concert Tuesday night no doubt would be appreciated. Wednesday afternoon teasas and Nebraska debate in chapel.
These are some of the ideas the folks from home may pass judgment. K. U. is looking for the folks and the table is set. If they fail to come it is their own fault. The school has tried to get the folks here.
CECIL FANNING SINGS TOMORROW
Third Number of University Concert Course Features American Baritone
Cecil Fanning, American baritone will give a vocal recital Tuesday evening in Robinson Auditorium, as the third number of the University Conference on the best known American baritones, and has a voice of excellent quality. He is entirely a product of American training—since he has never studied abroad. He has however, given many lectures in Europe as well as America.
Mr. H. B. Turpin, his accompanist has won a great fame in his line. Mr Fanning refuses to sing to the accompaniment of any other pianist.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 11, 1916.
Since the sale of season tickets has so increased, there will be less than a hundred single seats for sale at the door Tuesday night.
MISS CLARK GETS OUT
NEW BOOKLET OF POEMS
The recital Tuesday night will consist of a program of great variety Songs from favorite American composers, classic French Opera airs and lieder by the greatest German composers will make up the program.
A new edition of Esther M. Clark's booklet of poems, "The Call of Kansas and Other Verses," neatly bound in brown board covers, has appearance.
Two new poems, "I knew a Poet and "A Voice," have been added to the collection. "The Stars Above Mount Oread" and "The Land Beyond the Valley" are poems about our own Hill which have made a strong appeal to all readers who know Mount Oread and have a line in the former. "There are no stars like these that shine above Mount Oread," strikes a responsive note.
True sentiment and simplicity of expression characterize the collection. Other poems are: "My Travelled Road," "The Hand That Cling," "The Clover and the Sky," "Good Night," "Rosso o My Heart," "Beauty for Ashes," "Bendouen," "Little Boy That Used to Be," and "A Ballast of Good Company."
Some of these were written, the author says, for people with whom she has been associated in her work here at the University.
Miss Clark is enrolled as a special on the Hill.

RADICAL CHANGES IN
RADICAL CHANGES IN VALLEY GAMES NEXT FALL
The results of the conference of Missouri Valley officials at Manhattan Friday brings forth some intertaking facts about the football games in the Missouri Valley for next year. Although the complete schedules of the conference schools were not announced, radical changes are predicted.
Missouri will meet Nebraska on the Lincoln gridiron next week the week before the Kansas-Nebrasa game. The Missouri and Kansas Aggie mannequin are playing against the Nebrasa game was substituted by the Tigers, Nebrasa, on the other hand, dropped the Ames game to play Missouri. The Kansas Aggies have only two conference games scheduled—one with Nebraska and one with Washington. They are preparing for games with Ames, Drake, and Washington.
KANSAS DEBATES WITH NEBRASKA
Teams Will Meet in Fraser Hall Wednesday Afternoon at Four-Thirty
When the Kansas debating team meets Nebraska's team in Fraser Hall Wednesday afternoon at four o'clock, a decision will be reached on a vital question that has bothered the statesmen of the world since the beginning of the war. The Kansas队 uphold the affirmative of this question, "Resolved: That submarine warfare is incompatible with the rights of neutrals and the law of nations in regard to non-combatant enemies."
The speakers for Kansas are Edwin Price, George Brown, and Harold Mattoon. Two of the judges, Mr. F. W. Wilson, United States District Attorney and Prof. E. M. Bainter, both of Kansas City, have been chosen. The speaker will be provided by speaking, will go to Kansas City tonight to make arrangements with a representative from Nebraska for the third indule.
A Kansas team will debate the negative side of this question in Lincoln at the same time as the debate in Lawrence. W. H. Wilson, Lyle Anderson, and Wallace Hake are the speakers on this team.
K. U. TO GET NEW SHOPS—MAYBE
Fowler Shops Converted Into Cafeteria if New Building is Forthcoming
Steps will be taken immediately to secure for the University of Kansas machine shops such as the University should have. Prof. F. H. Sibley, of the university's building engineering, has been authorized by the Board of Administration to prepare plans for a frame building 150 feet long and 80 feet wide for submission to the state architect, who must apply plans for new University buildings.
Dean F. W. Blackmar of the Graduate School talked at Plymouth Center, the parish house of the Congregational Church, last night on "Kansas Prisons." He spoke of the change in prison attendance and treatment of prisoners from what they were twenty-five years ago, and also of the movement of establishing farm homes where prisoners may live and work under sanitary conditions.
The new shops, which will be located near the present Engineering Building, will contain rooms for machine, foundry patterns, and forge shops together with adequate computing and office rooms. The equipment in the buildings must be up-to-date available. Professor Sibley has visited the machine shops of such universities as Purdue, Pittsburgh, and Illinois and he intends to include in the plans for the K. U. shops the best features found there, including the computer equipment of the engineering faculty. Every possible effort will be made to build shops that will meet the needs of the University in every way.
Pi Gamma Sigma, honorary educational sorority, had a Christmas party in the Mission Study room in Myers on Thursday. In the restroom, intensive presents were exchanged and the verses accompanying them afforded fun for all present.
"There has been considerable talk of converting Fowler Shops, which is too small and inadequate, into a University Commons and Cafeteria," said Professor Sibley, "and in such an event we want to be prepared with plans and specifications to present to the State Legislature."

JAZZ-TIME MUSIC TO FEATURE PROM
Managers of Social Classique Announce Orchestra For Event
"BEST EVER" MONTGOMERY
Plans for Prom More Elaborate Than In Past Say Managers
For the first time since the opening of the Pompeian Room at the Hotel Baltimore in Kansas City, the orchestra under the leadership of Jack Riley which plays there will be taken away from the hotel to play for a concert. With its ten pieces, will come to Lawrence on January 5 for the Junior Prom. "This is the first time I've ever consented to take my whole orchestra away from the hotel," said Riley Saturday to Prom Manager Harry Montgomery. Riley's orchestra is famous for her "first time" acquaintance unaccompanied, which is particularly good for the modern dances.
the personnel of the orchestra is noteworthy. Riley, the leader, plays a clarinet—an unusual departure from the accepted mode—and he has had years of experience in conducting orchestras of varying size from a four piece dance orchestra to the symphony orchestras organized in Kansas City for special "pop" concerts. Two of his players were former members of the Minnesota Symphony Orchestra. R. F. Hart-organizer, played with the northern organization for five years, and George Goll, who is a real artist with the bass viol, played with them for three years.
"Pewee" Bowers, the saxophone player, is one of the stars of Riley's organization He is an old student from the University of Illinois, and his own orchestra has played for the junior prom at that school for the last three years. Potty Clark, who tripped the light fantastic many a time to Bowers' music says that "Pewee" is unquestionably the best saxophone player in the whole band." He is the musician the prom will be the "Baltimore Rac" played by Bowers as he stands alone in the center of the ballroom floor.
Al Wilson, a brother of K. U's own "Swede" is the banjo player for the Riley organization; Hombri Gribble, an assistant drummer for Bill Martin, once a student at Syracuse University, plays the drums, bells, xylophone, whistles, noises, tom yomis, et certae. "He's a real moo," says Manager Montgomery.
John O'Neil, the trombone player,
is the originator of "jazz-time" music
on a trombone. His playing is remarkable.
L. Ferrero, the second
player and Billy Keith, the cello,
are both players of experience and
ability.
SMOKER ENDS THE SEASON
The football smoker Wednesday night in F. A. U. hall will mark the close of the football season and the program includes speeches by Chancellor Frank Strong, Coach W. O. Hamilton, Coach Herman Olcott, assistant Coach George "Potts" Chapman, coach of the newly elected captain who will be elected tonight. Music will be furnished by the University Glee Club. A boxing match will be staged between Young Murphy and a sparring partner, two light weights of Kansas City. The football "Ks" will be pre-match for Jimmy Green and the members of the freshman squad will receive sweaters.
Speeches, Music and Boxing In Honor of Team
Tickets for the smoker went on sale today and may be obtained from members of the Student Council. The admission is twenty-five cents and the smoker is open to all men of the University.
"CHIMES OF NORMANDY TO BE PRESENTED JAN.
January the fifteenth, the second Monday of school after vacation, has been selected as the date for "his" graduation. The student will be given by the School of Fringe Arts.
A dress rehearsal for the first act and part of the second is to be held tonight, according to Mrs. Harold Butler, who is directing the action of the opera. Other rehearsals of the singing parts are to be held this week.
The play is to be given at the Bowersock theater.
A chapel alarm clock is the latest improvement at Drake University. It is a bell which will ring ten minutes before the hour is up to warn chapel speakers to bring their lecture to a close.
ALL YEAR SCHOOL FAVORED AT MEET
New Plan Endorsed by Missouri Valley Conference Governing Boards
Present Terms Last Forty-Six Weeks, Six More Needed to Comply With Rule
LITTLE EFFECT ON K. U.
"The Desirability of an All-Year Session of the Institutes of Higher Learning" was the main topic discussed at the fifth annual meeting of the National Board for Teachers Boards at the Hotel Muehlebach in Kansas City Saturday. The plan, which provides for an eleven-month school year, was unanimously indented by the delegates and will be approved by the entire body of the conference members later.
The schools composing the Conference, are: University of Kansas, University of Nebraska, University of Missouri, Kansas State Agricultural College, Iowa State College, University.
“This plan, if adopted, will not materially affect the University of Kansas,” said Chancellor Strong; “as we already have forty-six weeks of school which is practically a continuous session.”
H. M. Bell, president of Drake University, was elected president of the conference to succeed Dr. Waters. E. W. Stanton, vice-president of Iowa State College, was re-elected secretary.
LEADING EDITOR TO LECTURE HERE
Charles Dillon, of Capper Publications, Will Give Two Addresses
Students of the University and the general public will have an opportunity to hear two good lectures on agriculture, including Charles Dillon, managing editor of the Capper farm publications, visits the University. Although the lectures are on newspaper topics, the courses are open to the general way of interest to the public.
FIRST LECTURE TOMORROW
The first lecture will be given at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon in the Fraser Chapel. The subject for this address will be "Newspapers and the newspapers" as a relation of the newspapers to the public by answering the questions, "Does the public understand the press?"; "Is the criticism of the newspapers justified?"; "Is there a paper" and "how long of reading a newspaper?"
Wednesday afternoon Mr. Dillon will speak on "The Professional Man and his Paper" at 4:30 p. m. in the Show Hall lecture room. He will exhibit a lawyer, doctor, engineer, and pharmacist to know about the press.
Mr. Dillon is a newspaper man and lecturer of wide experience. He was head of the department of Industrial Journalism at the Kansas State Agricultural College before accepting a position with the Capper publications. He has had some experience on the lyeum circuit and is noted for his keen wit and sense of humor which is reflected in his addresses. The talks here will be primarily for journalists but because of the general interest of his audience he has been the public in Mr. Dillon the lectures will be thrown open to the public.
CAST CHOSEN FOR PLAY
FORMER AGGIE MAN

“Under Cover” was one of last season's great successes in city play-houses, and according to Professor Tate, the house will be spared in staging the play.
ARMENIAN RELIEF FUND
REACHES $320 MARJ
The work of soliciting the students and faculty for the Armenian relief has not been finished, but contribution has increased. Most of this money was pledged by faculty members; in fact, very little money has been turned in to the registrar by the committees appointed by class presidents to solicit the students.
"This money will soon be forwarded to the National Committee at New York," said Harry Morgan, a student member of the relief committee, this morning. "The plight of this unfortunate people is daily growing worse, and we will be glad to get this money on the way."
INCOME BILL IS UP TO STUDENTS
Success of Measure Depends or Work of K. U. Men and Women During Holidays
AGGIE SCHOOL HELPING
Student Council at Manhattan Signify Their Desire to Do All They Can to Get Law
What The Income Bill Means For The University:
A More Healthy Growth
Better and More Permanent Teaching Facilities.
Maintenance of University on a Permanent Basis.
Better Care of University Administration. New Buildings
New Buildings.
The success or failure of the Permanent Income Bill in the coming session of the legislature will be largely determined by the amount of work done by the University students when they go home for the Christmas holidays, according to Willard Glaso, president of the County Club Union
STUDENTS MUST SEE LEGISLATORS
"The County Club Union has done all it can to organize the counties of the state so that the members of the various county clubs could talk intently about these issues this morning, "but the bill will not get far in the legislature unless the students talk to the legislators 'back home' individually during the holidays. If the members of the legislature go to Topeka with the idea that they would want to to the legislature itself, and to the state schools, they will glibly pass it."
"But right now they have not been shown the many good points of the new bill. It is up to the students of K. U. as well as of the other schools to show the legislators the need for such a law."
K. S. A. C. TO HELP FIGHT
Many of the county clubs will send their members to place the essential features of the bill before the legislators, but the success of the bill will depend upon the work done by all of the students individually.
Willard Glacier will leave Tuesday for Manhattan to have a conference with the Men's Student Council of theAggie school. The Agriculture College has stated its desire to co-operate with other colleges to secure the passage of the bill, Mr.Glacier will stop in Topeka on his return trip to interview the Governor.
The new literature on the Permanent Income Bill will be given out the public. It will be intended for university is urged to read the pamphlets is urged and then to show the representatives in their counties that the schools want the Permanent Income Law.

FORMER STUDENT IN WAR
Eliot Porter c'11, Is In Ambubulance Corps of French Army
Army
"Somewhere" along the western battle front of Europe, a former K. U. man sits watchfully behind the wheel of a Red Cross ambulance alert to the call for help among the wounded. His mission is confined to the aid of the fortunate who have fallen in battle.
Eliot Porter, c'11, who is referred to in the foregoing paragraph, arrived in Paris, November 1, and from that point he expected to proceed to the front as a chauffeur in the American Ambulance Corps.
Porter, besides being a K. U. man, is also a graduate of the Princeton theological seminary, and prior to his departure from this country he conducted a parish at Harlowton, Montana, where he met a student to see more of the world, and his hands in the cause of the allies caused him to enter the Red Cross work.
Porter in a letter to his father, Justice Silas Porter, gave an interesting account of his voyage across the ocean to the boat, "Lancastrian," which carried a shipment of mules to the allies. The crew of the boat, composed mainly of cunpchunners and the rough element of camphor front, became good friends of Porter. Boxing had been displayed in several friendly bouts held on board ship.

WELCOME, FATHERS AND MOTHERS!
In our "working clothes" we we come you, our fathers and mothers
We're not putting on any airs. In the first place, it wouldn't be any use. You know us too well. And in the second place, we don't want to. For we want you to see us just as we are, day in and day out. We want you to see for yourselves what we eat and wear, who our friends are and how we pass our time with them, what our lessons are and how long it takes us to get them, what kind of men and women our professors are and what kind of information they are stuffing down us in the classroom, what our buildings and our classrooms are like. We want you to be acquainted with our campus. We hope you will come to love it as we do. We want you to share with us the inspiration of the view from Mount Oread. We want you to understand what it means to us. And the long pull up the Hill, the rush for 8:30 classes, the boning for quizzes and the sigh of relief after a hard one, the movies, Brick's, Lee's, Wiedemann's, the physic's clock and McCook Field—these things are important on our horizon. We want them to become parts of your lives as they are parts of ours. We want you to work and play with us—even as you used to when we were wee swa youngsters back at home. In short, we want you to live with us our college life for a few days.
In our working clothes, we bid you welcome.
DEPAUW AND HER FRESHMEN
Seeing and hearing a woman like Mrs. MacDowell kind of helps one to doctor up his belief in humanity.
DePauw University offers a course called "How to Study," open only to freshmen, and giving regular college credit. It is said that the scholastic standing of the class has undergone a shift since the installation of the course.
This is one way of solving the problem suggested in the complaint frequently heard: "I flunked because I was too late to be until after I had been here a year."
Some method of scholastic guidance for the freshman seems advisable. To the student, a good situation, in a manner which is certain to have an effect, is undoubtedly better than other attempts which have been made in the same general directive.
The Big Brother plan may do some good along this line, although its primary object is different. Even so, it is scarcely reasonable to expect such a voluntary scheme, so vitally dependant on people's capabilities, to produce perfect results.
The system of advisers, under the loose organization which was in vogue here, cannot be expected to be superiority guidance by upperclassmen for freshman sounds
better than it ordinarily works out in
practices, and besides, applies to but a
new kind of work.
Perhaps DePauw is on the right track toward cutting down the number of freshmen who flunk out through sheer inexperience.
Don't boast; keep busy!
HOW OLD IS MARY?
"Achievements of life depend upon the ability to keep young," says an editorial in "National Flood-Marks." What is youth, after all? Is it only something physical—merely a master of years, of bloom in the cheeks? Is Mary old when she has reached maturity, of bloom in the Mary! Her age is determined by the condition in which she has kept her body, by the books she has read, the things she has observed, the society she has kept, and by thoughts that have passed through her mind. Youth, then, depends upon the feed-ment sources of Wepon constant materials. You want more than a mental state. Mary is just as old as she thinks she is, if, with the first signs of coming gray hair, she gives up her outdoor sports for fear of stiffness in the joints, confines herself to the sitting room, to sitting, and the Ladies' House where she lives her black, and wears an old lady's bonnet, just ask the young folks about her if they consider her one of their laughs and take note of their answer!
THE TIGHT ROPE WALKER
Some people regard life as a straight and narrow path, and a thorny one at that! Others look upon it as an elaborate code of rules and formality. Life is more like walking a tight rope. Lean out as far to either side as you wish, and all is well, as long as you keep your balance. But for an in-depth study of equilibrium, and you bound for the start of all over again.
Jayhawk Squawks
The University of Kanaa is unfortunate in having more boys and fewer men.
What we need more in these days, and will need when the present generation of college students is out fighting for a living, is a race of men with character, intelligence, and can meet men in all positions and still know where they stand.
The recent trouble with the faculty over the so-called "Naughty Rally" has shown that the men of the University of Kansas as a body are lacking in the spirit and punch that counts.
With the suspension of eight fellow students staring in the floor, eighteen hundred who called themselves men crawled into their corners and called the faculty *v* crowd of old moss-backs.
The men were suspended November 28. Every student in the University knew it by November 29. Not a public statement was made nor any action taken with the Senate until Wednesday, December 6, the day after the regular meeting of that body.
It was then to late to take any action until January without a special Senate meeting. And it takes plenty of wire pulling and wading through red tape to call a special Senate meeting.
And we want men who can think they can be as nearly right as the Senate; men who will come out and stand openly for their convictions; men who don't write communications and say "You can publish it if you publish it under or—if you publish it under my name cut out these last sentences."
We want alert men. Men who jump at the crack of the gun, and find out why, at least, instead of raising a howl only when requested to do so by a newspaper reporter, and making it a weak howl at that.
We want substantial men. Men who will propose consecutive measures instead of knocking behind their victim's back. Men who will work to gain their end and substantiate their convictions.
The students themselves are responsible for the faculty holding the reins of discipline, but despite the fact that they haven't any final say, if raised immediately would have sounded mighty loud to the Senate.
To speak scholastically we need more of the active and less of the passive.
There are these men in school, but there are also those who prefer to be tailor's models rather than men. Their spirit saps the real spirit out of those who have the real stuff in them.
We need more of the spirit of the old sailor who translated the tattoo-on his onik "Dum Spiro Spero" as "While I'm Alive I'll Kick."

A STATEWIDE PROTEST
CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be signed as evidence of good but with names will not be published without the writer's consent
Practically every student, on the campus and at the rooming houses is discussing means of showing disapproval of the action of the Senate in the case of the assaults that were suspended because of their part in the naughty rally. If the Senate refuses to modify its decision by the first of the week, the suggestion is made that men composing the statement may show up publically, the affair state wide publicity.
The suggestion is that as a last resort each man in the University write a personal letter to his home paper and another letter to his father and mother, setting forth in detail the facts of the case. It is thought that if the people of this state know the real reasons for the rayl that of more than 500 implanted rats rally only eight are being punished, and that the Senate in reaching its decision used mediaeval methods of procedure, making no pretense that it is punishing the leaders or instigators of the rally—the justice-loving citizens of Kansas would make a protest which could not be disregarded.
SHOULD A WOMAN PROPOSE?
W. C. G.
In answer to the article in Wednesday night's Kansan, "Should Woman Propose," I say emphatically "No." True it is that woman is now sharing her passion for education, business, politics, all feel the powerful influence of feminine minds.
The privilege of proposing is the only thing left for mere man. Therefore I say let him enjoy this privilege alone.

Dear Father Time! Hasten, we pray thee, the day when all good freshmen shall be no more; direct our erring paths through the blind maze of college endearment; teach us the beauty of obedience; may our students have occasion for regret because of their sludders; may we learn to be humble.

THE LITTLE THINGS
Two pretty girls came breezing into the bank and laughingly up to me, their window. They present their checks receipts on a lightly out again. A few minutes later they return, their faces a little more serious. "How much was that check? Oh, you gave me two dollars it." It is the little things that count.
SCRIBISH SCRIBBLINGS
The "stuck up" aren't all confine to the other side of the Alleghenies. The other day we heard of a K. U student who was too proud to stand at the door and take tickets at a recent University function.
The ukulele, which, translated means "dancing flee," was invented by a Portuguese immigrant about forty years ago and was given its name because of the "jumping" manner in which it is played.
No, he wasn't a "son of the idle
thief." He is working his way
through school.
A large shepherd dog was parading the Hill yesterday with this sign in his mouth, "i eat at the Sanitary Cafe." This is one of the most novel bits of advertising seen yet, especially for a sanitary cafe.
Last week we could hardly wait to see the Sour Owl—like the law student who drew a room with a bath in a hotel. When shown the tub tub he exclaimed, "Gee, I can hardly wait 'til Saturday night to get in it."
Just when a fellow thinks he has his allowance under control, some one has to start a campaign for the Ar-
tector. The coctioner raises the price of chocolate.
Where is the fellow who used to sing it, "Bringing in the Cheese?"
But since the nearest stellar source of nocturnal illumination is distant some 70,437,632,898 miles, its imposition on the surface of the midnight oil is negligible.
"The night has a thousand eyes, And the day but one."

"I am Miss Smith the school nurse,

COMPOSER'S WORK PLAYED BY WIFE
Mrs. MacDowell Renders Husband's Compositions in Concert Saturday Night
To hear Mrs. MacDowell is to hear really the foremost of American composers, Edward A. MacDowell. For life association with the man, MacDowell, has impressed Mrs. MacDowell with the querities and peculiarities of the composer. His incisions in the music editions are played by Mrs. MacDowell in the way MacDowell himself played them.
The program played by Mrs. Mac-Dowell Saturday evening to a good Saturday evening audience was a combination of the favorite works of her husband—the nature studies—and his less fortunate compositions which express no experience in the life of the composer—the sonatas. Especially in the Sonata Tragicia it is the lack of articulation in the composition brought out. But the atmosphere by the work in the bass notes was wonderful.
MUSIC HAS DOMINANT FEATURE
"The Monologue" from Op. 31 presented a monotonous, yet pleasing tone poem. It was interpreted in a variety of ways. And there is a dominant feature in the works of Mac Dowell. Perfect mastery of tonal expression, eloquent, slow, with the melody in one hand—these are some of the characteristics brought out in the interpretation by composers and painters in "Woodland Sketches" and "Fireside Tales", Op 11, that made these compositions the favorites of the evening. Much difference was shown in the two works, "To a Water Lily" and "The Nature of the nature side of life, dearest to Mac Dowell. The first is slow and stately, and easy; the latter has a swift, swinging action. In "The Eagle," the pianist interpreted exuberantly the bass lines of fall of the eagle in comparison to the fall of a thunderbird.
**INTERPRETS GERMAN SPIRIT**
The effect of German romanticism and German customs forces itself on the character of the novel. "From a German Forest" speaks of the German martial spirit, German concissence, German heaviness, and German slowness. "Dr or Rabbit" is the title of Dr. Tales's reading of many fairy tales.
Preceding the recital Mrs. Mac Dowell worked in the Mac Dowell Memorial Association.
The University women of the Epworth League of the First Methodist Church entertained the men of the Church with a leap year party Friday night.
The Alpha Delta Pis were at home to the Betas at the chapter house Friday from five until six o'clock.

LINDSEY IS GIVEN ALL-VALLEY RANK
Kansas Captain Only Jayhawker on the Mythical Eleven
Eleven
Captain Adrian Lindsey secured a half back position on the mythical-missouri Valley eleven, which was selected by the coaches and Valley officials in Kansas City last week. On the first team Missouri drew three players from Kansas, Ames, and the Kansas Argies two, each; Kansas and Drake, one.
Kansas was represented on the see- second team by the choice of Burton as tackle and Fast as halfback. Kansas failed to place on the third team.
The naming of two Aggies on the first team is a thing without precedent and gives the Aggies the highest standing they have ever held in Valley athletic circles. The choice was made because of the fine playing of Randels at end and Wells at fullback.
The Nebraskans placed both tackles on the team. Tim Corey the Cornhusker captain, was chosen captain of the team and led his steadiness and good leadership.

GRIDIRON HEROES IN FORMAL SCRIM
Law School Honors Footbal Men With Annual Party
It was a great party!
True, Ad. Lindsey got cold feet at the last minute, and decided that he couldn't undergo the torture of being exclaimed over by bevie of good-looking K. U. women; and Uncle Jimmy Green, the patron saint of K. U. footwear, told me that such was the excellence of the other features of the annual Law Scrim that the absence of two of the guests of honor failed to damage the spirit of the affair. Haley's high speed orchestra opened the throttle wide after Chancellor and Mrs. Strong had led her to a night before Friday night until two the next morning there was plenty of amusement for everyone present.
The hall was prettily decorated in crimson and blue, with a huge canopy overhead as the predominating stage. At the back were son and蓝色 curtains; and the wall and ceiling chandeliers were shaded with red. The orchestra stage was a wilderness of vines and trees from behind which Haley poured forth his instrument.
Frank Hetherington and Skin Grever were the caterers in charge of supper which was served in three shifts.
The program were fashioned into small footballs. They contained, besides the dance program, a list of the officers of the School of Law, the department of physical education, and the school's basketball skill and Jack Bond, who were responsible for the party, deserve a great deal of the credit for its success.

STUDENTS POOR SPELLERS,
SAYS PROFESSOR HAYNES
Some students of the University are mighty poor spellers, according to Winthrop P. Haynes, assistant professor of mineralogy. To make good use of minerals, you must misspell words one of his classes made in a rock-quiz. They are: Micha, mica; affenite, aphenite; balast, basalt; fespire, fespire; pofery; porphyry; plagliecise, plaglacase; groabro, groabro; corse and every member of his classes had different spelling for them.
FROSH SHOW FINE FORM
Basketball Men Think Tyros
Best Since 1914
The best freshman basketball team since 1914. That is the opinion of the followers of the Kansas game of basketball. The men are not so very tall, but they average as tall, if not as heavy, as the regulars. But fast floor and team work are the cards that won for Uhrlauh's proteges in the practice. But when the winner over the regulars by five points in a game of twenty minute halves.
The squad numbers about fifteen men, some of the most promising of whom are Ritchey, Davis, and Barter as forwards, Hoekwam and Rafferty as centers, and Miller, Manderville, and Knoles as guards.
The squand practice twice a week now, but Coach J. G. Uhrlub says he will start the new year by working the men three or four times per day. He also go on during the holidays, in order to the regulars opposition.
The only incentive that there is for the freshmen basketball men to go out is the coaching and experience they get from the practice. No games other than with the regulars, no trips to the court, no popularity of the game keeps enough of the men out to offer keen competition for all positions.

FOOTBALL SQUAD TO HAVE FEAST
The annual football banquet will be held Tuesday night at the Eldridge House starting at seven o'clock. Members of the football squad who have participated in any scheduled game and the six men on the cross-country team will be the honor guests at the banquet. The 1917 football captain and the captain of the cross-country team will be elected at this banquet.
Football and Cross-Country Men Dine Tomorrow Night at Eldridge Huose
Speaches will be made by the re-training captain, Ad Lindsey, and by the captain, William Otte. Poty Clark, and W. O Hamilton, manager of athletics, will make short talks on the work done by the team and next season's prospects. The work done by the cross-country team is discussed in the speaches by the team captains.
The election of the captain of the football team is decided by the men who have played in Vallejo games. The captain also votes for their captain, only six men being on the team throughout the season. Nielsen and Fast seem to be the most likely candidates among the men for captaincy of next year's football team.
The consistent work done by practically all of the cross-country men will probably result in the awarding of more letters in this branch of athletics than last year, the first year that letters were given. Letters not be awarded until the football smoker Wednesday night.
The awarding of all letters is left to the action and advice of the athlete board.

LAWYERS SHOULD KNOW
SOCIOLOLOGY AND ECONOMICS
Prof. F. W. Blackmar, of the department of sociology, has an article entitled "Sociology as a Preparation for the New World" in the number *book of Case and Comment*.
Doctor Blackmar shows that the social and economic changes taking place in the United States bring new questions to the front, making it more difficult for lawmakers should be much wider in its scope than in former years. The fact that many lawyers are being sent to legislatures and to Congress where laws are made would be wise to wake regarding social issues questions of the day.

WHEN FATHER AND MOTHER VISIT US
Telephone the Kansan So All Can Learn About Folks From Home
MANY PLACES TO CALL
Various Service Plants and University Hospital Offers Field for Investigation
The Kansan wants the names of the parents who are visiting in Lawrence for Fathers' and Mothers' Week. The minute Dad and Mother get here, the Kansan wants to tell about the folks. Whether *o* not parents come for Fathers' and Mothers' Week, they probably will begin to realize the interest the University is taking in them and their children. They will appreciate the personal service being provided by the University in state work.
TO STAY DESPITE WEATHER
The University is showing what it is trying to accomplish in the way of service to the citizens of the state. If parents should not come to school, they should inform them that six more moms are left in which they can visit.
TO STAY DESIRED
The weather is a fairly discouraging one and we desire to see the University in its work clothes, but a few of them already have come and are coming. Some of them expect to remain only for a day or so while others will stay for the week and go home with the children for vacations.
HEALTH FACTORY AWAITS THEM When Father and Mother are here, be sure and take them to the University Hospital. The nurses there will be glad to show them the equipment, the dispensary, and the way in which the many bright rooms are teeming with that happen to students every day. Formerly, if a student became ill, sprained a wrist, or broke a bone, he had either to call a physician, or patch up the break himself. Now it is different. A small fee of two dollars is paid in the fall. Then whenever anything happens, the student goes to the Hospice, receives medical attention, Let Father and Mother see how well the health of the son and daughter is being cared for.

DILLON LIKES TO ANSWER QUERIES
Nothing Pleases Him More Than to be Object of Verbal Broadside
"Just a moment, Mr. Dillon," interrupted a student, "where you do you consider the proper place for an editorial column?"
such questions and interruptions in the course of an address would disgust the ordinary individual but they have the opposite effect on Charles Darwin, author of The Carpenter farm publications, who is the guest of the University this week. In fact, nothing pleases Mr. Dillon more than to be the object of his attention and his answers with his honest opinion derived from years of experience.
ADDRESSED THREE CLASSES
Mr. Dillon addressed three classes in the journalism department this morning, a feat which required almost steady talking from 9:30 to 12:30. Yet the able editor never tired of his job and felt ready to continue the routine in the other two days he will remain at the University. The field of journalism in which Mr. Dillon is lecturing is a language and the wide expanse through which this particular field furnishes him with an inexhaustible supply of material from which to choose subjects for lectures.
NUMBER 65.
LECTURES AGAIN TOMORROW
This afternoon Mr. Dillon is delivering a public address in Fraser Chapel on the subject "Newpapers and the Public". In Snow Hall tomorrow afternoon at 4:30p. Mr. Dillon will give an interview to the "Professional Man and His Paper". This lecture as well as the one this afternoon will be open to the general public and the material will be handled in such a way that the average person with little knowledge of the technical side of Newpapers will find the idea of asking questions during the lecture will be carried out tomorrow.
The members of the Kansan Board will give a Christmas dinner at the Oread Cafe tonight in honor of Mr. Hobson, who is being honored by Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity, will give a smoker and feed for Mr. Dillon at the Sigma Nu house.

TO BE AFTER HOLIDAYS
"There will be no Christmas party given by the M. Y. C. a this week," said Secretary Wedell this morning. It was thought that there might be such a party but after looking over the schedule it was found that there were already too many social events and cuizies planned for the week.
The party nad been scheduled in the "K*" books for December 6th and was popped until this week. How was it popped until we now until a few weeks after Christmas.

Rinker and Dillon appear to be the most likely candidates for the capa-
tiancy of the cross-country team. Rinker will be a senior next year and
Rainier will be a junior next year, three in practically all of the distance
meets. Dillon will be a junior next year. His showing this fall has been
remarkable. His best showing was made at the Missouri Valley meet,
which drew third among the Kansas runners.
"K" letters for the two teams will not be given out until the football smoker, Wednesday night. There will probably be more letters given to them this year than last due to the consistent work done by the men this fall.
The race for the caputaincy of the football team appears to be a tossup between Frost, Fast, and Nielsen. Frost was one of the few men who made a place in the line out of the team at tackles. His work at tackle has been consistent throughout this fall. Nielsen has had his own at the fullback position this year in spite of the many men out for his position. His playing has been good in that position, many times instilled the same spirit into the line. Fast has been a brilliant open field runner and always speedy. His work was best in the Nebraska and his dashing off the team has added asset to the team this season.
THREE MEN UP FOR CAPTAINCY
Six new cities have been added to the membership of the League of Kansas Municipalities since the first of December. This makes a total of 132 cities in the largest membership the League has ever had. Last year there were 132 cities in the League at this time of the year. Clay Center in Clay county, Manchester in Dickinson county, Stavens county, Stevens county, Sedgwick in Sedgwick county, and Gridley in Coffey county are the new members.

The football season next year will be another long one, ten week-end being available for the schedule makers. A Missouri Valley conference ruling limits the number of football games to eight for K. U. so that there will be two off dates, one coming between the Nebraska and Missouri games as well. The opponent will be the big home contests for Kansas, the "Homecoming" being on November 17 at the time of the Nebraska clash.
Kansas will meet one more game on the gridiron in 1917 as it did in 1916, Manager W. O. Hamilton stated this morning. He announced the tentative schedule which includes several shifts. The Washburn game, played heretofore in November just before the Nebraska game has been shifted to October 20 as the third game of the season. The important events contest will be played two weeks later than in 1916, the 1917 date being October 27. Kansas also contests also are thrown a week later. The date of the Normal game will be either September 29 or October 13 with the Illinois contest October 6.

UNIVERSITY BAND PLAYS THURSDAY
Elaborate Program Has Been Prepared for Annual Concert
The University band will give its annual concert, Thursday night in Fraser Chapel at 8 o'clock. J. C. McCanies, better known as Mac, promises that this will be the best program a K. U. band ever rendered. A number of the selections were written by the band leader himself.
Other popular offerings of the evening will be the numbers, "Serenade" and "Andante e Mazurka" written by Mr. McCanes. The last number will be the already popular piece, "Our Uncle Jimmy." The words and music came from K. U.'s popular band-master
The program consists of eleven numbers in all. Miss Ednah Hopkins, an accomplished violinist of the School of Fine Arts will be the soloist of the evening. A Saxophone player will be another feature of the program.
BASKETEERS LOOK STRONG
Varsity Squad Shows Up Well In Scrimmage
Playing with a zip and dasht that brushed the freshmen off the floor, the Varsity basketball squad took revenge during drugging they received Wednesday.
Bill Weaver, who was the best center in the Valley during his years with K. U.'s championship teams of 1912-13-14 says, "The prospects for a successful team looks much better than it did at that time and largest bunch of men I have seen out for the team in some time."
The Varsity men will have no vacation this year as the team will have to work through the holidays in order to prepare for games at Ames on January 18 and 19.
AMERICAN RELIEF WORK
EXPLAINED BY PATTerson
Last night the squads were divided into three teams, each bunch playing twenty minutes. In every encounter the Varsity came out with the long end of the score. Good guarding featured in both squads but the regulars had a decided advantage in team work and speed.
Some of the new men who showed up well in scrummage were, Shinn, Matthews, Johnson, and Lindsey. With five men of last year's squad back and a strong bunch from the freshman squad of last year, the Jayhawkers' prospects for a successful 1917 basketball season looks especially bright
How the six American Relief Societies work in France was explained by D. L. Patterson, of the department at the Uniarian Church last night.
"Lawrence has a local interest in these societies, since $1,500 has been raised here for their support," said Professor Pintertown. "Then too, there is a chance that four or four Kansas boys are in the ambulance service on the front."
VACATION ENDS NEW YEAR'S DAY
Chancellor's Cabinet Decides Holidays Are Already Long Enough
The Christmas vacation ends with New Year's Day and classes will take up Tuesday morning, January 2. This was the decision reached yesterday afternoon at the meeting of the Chancellor's cabinet, which is composed of the heads of the different schools.
QUESTION OF CUTS UNSETTLED
The University has taken no action on the matter of cuts from classes on the campus, so that it will be given instructions, so that problem will be left to the individual instructors. The Senate has discussed the question of cuts at vacation time at several meetings, but no action has been taken and the Senate has said that it is probable that a meeting will be called before the holidays.
BEGINS EASIEST POSSIBLE DATE
"Since the Christmas vacation is so long this year—nearly two weeks and a half," said Chancellor Strong. "The holiday cabin did not deem it expedient to grant the extra day holiday. The vacation this year is starting at the earliest possible date and next year the vacation will extend past New Year, so the problem will not confront us then."
QUESTION OF CUTS UNSETTLED
The agitation for the extra day was started last week by students who live considerable distance from Lawrence and will have to travel New Year's Day in order to get here for Tuesday's classes.
VEREIN TO GIVE COMEDY
"Schuesebund" (The Bunch of Keys), a one-act comedy, will be given at the annual Christmas meeting of the German Verein, Wednesday evening at 7:30, in Room 313 Fraser Hall.
Will Present "Schussbund" at Christmas Meeting
"Schiesserbund" is the story of a young German professor, Franz Stein, and his wife, Oliga, who are expecting a visit from a wealthy and influential maiden wish at Franz, on whom they want to make a good impression. The Oliga habitually engages the宫廷 habitually careless. Olga cleans and straightens her house frantically, in preparation for the visit. The aunt arrives. Olga discovers, to her horror, that she has lost her bunch of keys, and as a result cannot unlock her property. She enquires about the search for the keys give rise to a number of amusing situations. The keys are found at last in the waste basket.

BATTERED WAR RELIC RESTS IN MUSEUM.
Tried Too Large a Shot
In an obscure corner of Dyche Museum, on the second floor, lies a relic of Civil War times. It is an old model cannon. Both wheels of the carriage are off and lie in the corner. A large hole in one side of the barrel testifies to a too large shot Battered and in a dilapidated condition, the old cannon rests there, probably noticed by few.
WATER IN THE OCEAN?
IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT
"What is it that we always find in the hese?" Doctor Moore asked of his elephant.
Doctor Moore was discussing some of the minerals that might be found in various places under various conditions. It so happened that he was talking about shells and lime formations in the ocean.
Hemphill, who was half asleep am, had only a vague idea of the answer. He didn't come upon the correct answer was quickly given out by the instructor.
DEBATERS CLASH WITH NEBRASKA
Kansas Meets Cornhuskers In Annual Contest in Fraser Tomorrow
TEAMS ARE OUT TO WIN

This is a year for victories over the Huskers; and when the Kansas and Nebraska debating teams meet in the dual verbal battle in Fraser Hall tomorrow afternoon at four o'clock and when the Chiefs play against hawk is going to fight for victory.
"The men are well prepared and will put up a hard fight. It will take strong teams to defeat them," said David O'Neill, chief executive of public speaking. Leland A. Smith, manager of the debating council, declared, "The teams are out to win."
In Lawrence the affirmative of the question, "Resolved: That submarine warfare upon commerce, as now conducted, is incompatible with the rights of neutrals and the law of nations in regard to non-combat enemies"; will be uphold by the Kansas State University George Brown, and Harold Mattoon. This team is exceptionally strong and experienced. Edwin Price was in the Kansas team that won against Colorado last year, Harold Mattoon helped defeat Missouri two years ago, and Kansas University this year, has represented Baker University in the State Oratical Contest.

Managers Harry Montgomery and Howard Fleeson made the announcement this morning. A male ticket will be a very evening of the party, when those who failed to secure tickets can get them at the door.
The following committeemen will have charge of the tickets: Warren Wattles, Frank Farley, Rudolph Uhrlaub, John Fogarty, Ted Richter, Foster Dennis, Rusty Friend, Frank Fratcher, Brick Chandler, Ennis Whitehead, Walter Hawerkorst, and Managers Fleeson and Montgomery.
"We don't anticipate much trouble in selling tickets," said Fleeson this morning. "The presidents of all the sororities will pay their own dues; and that ought to be a sufficient inducement to any hashful man to get busy with his date book. In fact, many of them have been busy, and a great many dates have already been filled up. The dates we are just as good fish," still applies, however, and now is the time for the men to be getting busy."

BEAT NEBRASKA!
Since the beginning of time,—mankind has delighted in watching a battle of wits. The Greeks glorified it. The Romans enjoyed it sophistically, much as a seasoned theater-goer enjoys a standard play. The citizens of the middle ages doubtless took as keen a relish in the word-squabbles of the scholastics as his modern brother does in the sparring of Roosevelt and Wilson. In fact, this pleasure in the spectacle of brain pitted against brain is one of the symptoms of a healthy, well-balanced mind.
K. U. students tomorrow afternoon will have an opportunity to enjoy oral fencing match of the highest order. Nebraska is famous for good debaters. Two of the men on the Kansas team are seasoned arguers. The third, while new on Oread rostrums, was considered Baker University's strongest debater.
An interesting contest is assured.
It's BEAT NEBRASKA again!
And then there is that old rivalry, which can never die out, between the two great Universities, just as strong on the debating platform as on the football field.
There isn't an Engineering student, a Law student, or any other kind of student who doesn't believe that he has some new idea that will revolutionize his field when he gets out of college. But that's what keeps the world moving.
THE WEATHER AND YOU Br-r-r-r-r.
Gee!
Br-r-r-r-r-r.
You jump out of bed, run to the window, and close it with a slam. You slap some cold water on your face, jump into a few clothes and take another wash—probably in cold water. In less time than it takes to tell it you are dressed and down to breakfast, and a few minutes later, bundled in a heavy coat you are breathing the brisk air on your way to an eight-thirty.
Walk up! This is no time for strolling or sluggishness. This is the time for wide-awakeness, alertness, zip, ginger, push, go!
Gee--don't you feel good. Wouldn't you like to tackle any problem from a calc problem to a Bengal lion?
Talk up! This is no time for grouches or the blues. This is the time for jump-at-the-trigger thinking and expression. This is the time when everybody feels awake and at his best if he ever has a best.
Work! This is no time for loafing at the post. This is the time for application. The time when you can settle down over a book or over your work for hours at a stretch, and feel like a million dollars when you get through.
Enjoy yourself! This is the happiest time of the year. Sit down in front of an open fire—with a friend or a book—and open up. Open yourself, your friend, or your book, and see how quickly your troubles vanish. There is nothing like it. It may be colder than "Jimmiejeeswax" outside, but you feel more snug because of it.
Open up! Lay yourself liable to the indictment of the weather. Get its spirit. It is the spirit of doing things. The elements are doing things—why don't you?
On account of the quizzes, the popular song last night was "Pray for the lights to go on."
A FEW LINES ON SLEEP (By a Cynic.)
In story books heroes awake from pleasant slumbers with songs upon their lips, roses in their cheeks, and golden ringets falling like haloes about their heads. Heroines of real life wear masks, but they are haloes of electric curlers that dig down into the tortured scalps like crowns of thorns! The eyes of these heroes are heavy and blinking, and the roses which they took from their cheeks just before retiring have not yet been donned for the day. Theirs is the glumest man in a kingdom, but work draw the unwilling ones from the most comfortable beds, and in the gray dawn they pound off the few remaining pages of manuscripts that "just must be in that day." People don't slumber royally as they used to; they don't even sleep. They haven't the time. They just drop into a businessiness as a business proposition. The engines must be oiled, the spark plugs brushed a little, so the old contrast will chug along for a few hours more at the desired rate of speed.
A DIRELECT GENIUS
"Oh where, oh where has my little dog gone?" might appropriately be sung by Miss Kitty Anybody, who has just lost her ambition and taken unto herself a new one. She started out to be a schoolma'am, but some one told her that a schoolma'am's sister frightened and secretly resolved that she would try something else just as soon as she could decide what. She attended a concert soon afterwards. When she heard the resonant tones of the singer—and the applause—she decided that she was cut out to be a singer. So Kitty took lessons. It was fine at first. She gloried in it! But soon she noticed that the exertion then besides, she just couldn't stand being starved. she knew she would die if she couldn't eat what she wanted to! "So 'Goodbye, grand opera star'!" Then Kitty decided she wanted to write stories; it sound so well to be called a writer. But Kitty's pet production came back with a rejection slip, and she got cross at the editors because they did not appreciate her genius. Moreover, she was sitting at an altar and going about with her fingers covered with ink. So she just couldn't stand it any longer, and tried something else. Kitty is still a genius just floating about in space—not hitched to any star!
CAMPUS OPINION
Communication must be slowed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent.
Editor. the Daily Kansan:
Permit me as the head of one of the small Kansas high schools and a former student of the University to say a few words in commendation of the action of the University senile in suspending the students involved in the recent, unauthorized rally.
Students in the high schools of the state watch and pattern after the students of the University to a far greater extent than the latter and the University authorities can imagine. An act of pure "hooliganism" such as this rally plants its vicious seed of disregard for law and order in the heart of the all too receptive high school boy. The faculty and student of the University owe it to the high school students of the state, to us who are laboring to develop in them ideas of civic responsibility, and to the fathers, the taxpayers, to set us a pattern of those civil ideals.
If the act of the suspended students only had to do with the University itself, I would be tempted to agree with those critics of the action of the Senate who insist that the punishment is too heavy, but the full significance of that act will become evident five or ten years from now, not in the University alone but in the College and the State. The act of the Senate was just and wise. Its influence will do much to blot out the results of a vicious and uncivic act of student thoughtlessness. Very respectfully.

TWO CLASSES TO FIGHT FOR TITLE
Sophs and Juniors Clash Thursday for Football Championship of University
HARD TO PICK THE WINNER
Third Year Team is Heavy, Bu Opponents are Fast and Experienced
The final game of the inter-class series will be played between the sophs and juniors tomorrow afternoon at three-thirty.
The teams are evenly matched and the game is expected to be close. The juniors, although outweighing their opponents, are less in control than the mainhold of the second year aggregation lies in their speed and veteran players.
In speaking of the game the junior coach, Wint Smith is rather confident. "If the sophs have no more than they showed in their game yesterday, we will clean them in great shape." The referees shift men in the backfield, a combination which will give their lineemen a hard game."
After the poor showing in yesterday's game the second year men are not confident of carrying off the honors of the series. They clearly outclassed the years and better team in all departments of the game. Coach Wilson is rather dubious as to the outcome of the linal game. "The boys will have to do better than they have done if they win," he said this afternoon. "I believe we have the better team, more experience and we ought

ALUMNI PROTEST AGAINST BIRD
alized
Grads Say Twentieth Century
Jayhawker is Convention-
"Expel the conventional twentieth century Jayhawker and revive the original Jayhawk with the jay bird body, hawk head, and eagle beak." This suggestion was made by the University of Kansas. Thanksgiving they were in Lawrence to attend the Kansas-Missouri football game. The old grads said that the students of today do not know the characteristics of the original Jayhawk and their work of the Cartoonist at the University to re-original bird.
The evolution of the Jayhawker was objected to because the original bird possessed a jay bird body, a hawk head, and an eagle beak. The body and head were black and the eagle beak was long and hooked, and the alumi said that the most important bird has a beak like that, which is not dignified for the "rare old bird" type." The Jayhawk statutes are also of the conventional type. The evolution of the Jayhawker may be traced back for three or four years.
The original Jayhawker may be revived, according to the alumni, by the cartoonists of who will decorate windows for the merchants. With drawings of the Jayhawker. According to Floyd Welsh, a prominent cartoon advertiser at the Fairmount Park Mall, his painted decorations of the future will be of the original type of the bird.

OFF-SIDE PLAYS
The line plunging ability of the soph backs swamped the frosh forwards. Buck Seward galloped through the yearlings for ten yards at a clip. Dunkley, fullback, smashed through time and again for consistent gains. Casey simply outran the fresh ends. Marquis, though the lightest man on the team, went through center for the second touchdown.
Url Nudeson, frosh halfback, twisted his knee in the second quarter of the game. The same knee kept him out of the game earlier in the season as he was a member of McCarty's squad for a month.
Doc Marquis handled the sof team like the veterinian he is. Although his head was strong, the most consistent headwork and excellent blocking made him the star of the game.
Much credit is due to Coach Olcott in developing the inexperienced men into a machine which held the strong soph aggregation. Several of the men on the team never played football before, and even the quarterback did not know all of the men by name. They put up a good game, fighting to the last, although greatly outclassed.

WOODBURY HERE DEC.13 AND 14
University students are to have the opportunity, December 13 and 14, of hearing a personal friend of Emerson's tell of him as he was. On these dates Mr. Charles Woodbury of Oakland, Calif., will give two lectures entitled, "Emerson as He Was With His Friends"; and the second, "Himself."
To Give Two Lectures on Ralph Waldo Emerson— In Fraser Hall
The first lecture consists of a conversational discourse, full of reminiscences and anecdotes; accounts of Emerson's relations with such famous persons as; Thoreau, Louisa Alcott, Lowell, Margaret Fuller, and others.
The second lecture presents Emerson's work, and his method of working.
Dean Green of the Law School and Mr. Woodbury were classmates at Williams, graduating fifty years ago last June. "While we were students Emerson gave a course of lectures and Mr. Woodbury's association with Emerson began at that time," said Dean Green. "We boys," he continued, "had not we thought a good joke on him. He had heard of Emperor for the works of a certain poet and so he dug into that author's work, thinking to be able to discuss the poems. When the opportunity arrived, it happened that he had hit upon the poems that Emerson had not even read."
BULDLOGS NOT ESSENTIAL
TO COLLEGE EDUCATION
The lazy, lounging bulldog of the faternity house must be taxed from now on due to the fact that it is not an educational institution or necessarily any part thereof. This interpretation came about when a certain fraternity in a small college town refused to pay taxes on their pet mascot according to Homer Talbot, secretary of the Municipal Reference Dept., in the University of Kansas. Mr. Talbot, the bulldogs should be taxed because they are not educational institutions or furniture, books, equipment or instruments of such an institution or organization to promote education.
14 to 0 Victory by Speedy Sophomore Football Team on Frozen Field
The sophomores easily defeated the freshmen yesterday afternoon on McCook Field, 14 to 0, by using consistent spacing. The class connecled the lighter freshman team in every department of the game. Casey was the most consistent ground gainer for the second year and was the only student to star of the freshman aggregation.
SOPHS DEFEATED FRESHMAN TEAM
The trend of the game is most readily shown by the number of downs gained by the sophomores, 17; to 3 downs of the yearlings. However the sophomores suffered practically all of the penalties of the game. The first quarter ended scoreless, the freshmen aided by several. In the final penalty yards of the sophomore goal. The best play of the freshmen was the same play that was so successfully used by Missouri against Kansas Thanksgiving day.
The first touchdown came as a result of fake plays off tackle in which Casey carried the ball for gains of seventeen, ten and four yards. Casey carried the ball over and kicked goal. The last touchdown was made by two end runs and a goal by a fast play line by Casey. Marquis carried the ball on the last two plays and carried it over on a line buck. Casey kicked the goal.
SOFHS A WELL OLD MACHINE
The whole sophomore team played in good fashion and together with them, starring in the backfield, while Wilbur and Harte did well in the line. Only one pass was completed in the game and that was one recovered by a freshman after Harte had touched Casey for a penalty-two-yards and Seward tore-off several good runs around the ends.
Casey tried a field goal in the third quarter from the thirty-seven yard line but the kick fell short by several yards. He took another shot and the suit of Occlite Ocletts coaching but they lacked weight and experience. Marquis, the man from Drake, played a heady game as sophomore quarterback. But he was not forced to open up except once.
SENIORS FORGET TO TURN
The senior juniors take their game to the juniors because of the lack of men to form a team. The junior girls will form a team. The junior boys will Wednesday afternoon at 3:00 cckd

here. Last year was his first year on the Varsity, and although his playing was not spectacular, it was always consistent. His best work last year was on the defensive, but for solid line smashing he was nearly always good for a gain. This year his playing has been more aggressive. In many games he has shown great ability in hand-to-hand play across the Nebraska line in the first victory since Tommy Johnson's celebrated dash in 1909.
Twenty-seven football men, six men of the cross-country team and the coaches were guests of honor at the banquet last night. Adrian Lindsey, captain, this year, was presented with a leather travelling bag by the men of his team. Lindsey in the back, three to five, way they played. Coach Olcott and Manager W. O. Hamilton also expressed their appreciation of the good work done by the team this season. Nielsen made a brief speech of thanks.
The captainny of the cross-country team was a race between Welsh and Rinker. Rinker, the new captain, is a junior from Wakeney.
He made a good showing in the spring inter-class meet last year and has been showing good form in every season. He is well suited to Stateler in practically every run.

Another article of particular interest to the students is the story of the "University on the Border," by Dr. Naismith, who was chaplain of the Lawrenmont Foundation. This team wrote a series of the K. U. boys last summer. There are several personal items, alumni notes and other features of interest.
KANSAS MEETS NEBRASKA TODAY
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER 13, 1916.
Debaters Discuss Submarine Warfare Question in Annual Dual Contest
The Lincoln debaters, Robert B. Waring, C. Ivan Winslow, and E Everett Carr, accompanied by Professor Maxey, arrived in Lawrence over the Union Pacific at three-fifteen o'clock this afternoon, passing on the row in the Kansas team, emu-ion, W. W. Hancock, son, and Wallace Hake, which upholds the negative side of this same question in Lincoln tonight.
The Kansas debating team is endeavoring to establish to the satisfaction of three judges this afternoon in Fraser Hall that submarine warfare upon commerce, as now conducted, is incompatible with the rights of neutrals and the law of nations in regard to non-combatant enemies; while the Nebraska队 is bombarding the same three judges with arguments to show that this undersea warfare violates these rights and laws. Edwin Price, George Brown, and Harold Mattoon compose the Kansas队.
Last year dual debates between the Universities of Nebraska and Kansas were resumed after a lapse of some ten years. At this first meeting Nebraska succeeded in defeating both Kansas teams, although only by close decisions. This adds much interest to the debate over which Kansans are fighting to win as complete a victory on the forum as the football team did on the rridiron.
The Delta Sigma Rho will give a banquet for the debaters and judges
FANNING CONCERT WON MUCH FAVOR
Baritone Rendered a Splendid Program With Much Ability
Cecil Fanning won the enthusiastic support of his audience in the first number of his program last night and retained it through the full two hours of splendid singing and dramatic interpretation.
Mr. Fanning's voice is a rich bari tone which is aided in the expression of emotional tones by his sincerely dramatic gesture. The variety in his program, which was illustrated in Loewe's "Der Erikonik", Schumann's "Der Nussbaum," and the Old French folk song "Le Cycle du Vin," would have discribed seriously plued voice or one which depended upon non-essentials for effect, but Mr. Fanning showed perfect control and his voice grew more pleasing and powerful as he continued.
"Iimmortal Love", by Prof. Arthur Nevin was rich in harmony and Mr. Fanning's interpretation of it was more suitable to the song rather than to himself.
He is perhaps at his best in the tenderer, softer songs; he creates the right atmosphere in the beginning and enables them to enjoy the beauty of the song.
The explanations made by H. B. Turpin, the accompanist, before many of the selections helped the audience to get more out of the individual numbers and made the program exceptionally interesting.
Something different in encores was the recitation of "The Bend in the Road", a poem which he himself wrote, while traveling in Ireland. His ready brogue made it wonderfully pleasing.
W. H. Wellhouse, assistant state mortologist, has just returned from Pittsburgh where he has been inspector of shipment of 2,000 oriental shrubs.
Eight students were suspended from the University November 28 for participating in the Naughty Rally. This was Tuesday afternoon. The following Tuesday, the Kansas took a positive stand on the matter. This paper jumped at no conclusions. It took time to investigate thoroughly. It presented the facts. It gave its readers its sincere judgment.
Students and Faculty Join Hands
The next day the Kansan pointed out a definite solution of the difficulty. The plan finally followed by the Student Council and the Disciplinary Committee was essentially the same one suggested by the Kansan. The result was made public this morning.
And it further called for expression of other student sentiment.
You know the response.
The Kansas cannot help take what it believes a justifiable pride in a service to the University. And it rejoices in the triumph of what it believes to be right.
BAND WILL GIVE ANNUAL CONCERT
It further congratulates the University on having such a fair-minded set of faculty men and a corps of student representatives, who were "on to their job."

my"... J. C. McCaines,
the 1916-17 band is the product of
ten years' effort on this album by
director, J. C. McCaines, who came
here in 1907, after studying music in
Chicago. At that time there was only
the nucleus of a band, no band music,
and no instruments. From this begin-
ning the University of Kansas
Band has been developed into a per-
forming group with an extremely high
quality of which is recognized
by prominent band leaders throughout
the country.

DILLON TALKS TO KANSAN
BOARD AT ANNUAL DINNER
Miss Alberta Corbin is not meeting her German classes this week because of illness.
The Daily Kansan Board gave its annual Christmas dinner last evening at Bricken's. Mr. Charles Dillon, managing editor of the Cappar Farm Publications, who is giving a series of lectures on this week, was the ruest of honor.
Other guests included the members of the faculty in the department of journalism and the twenty-two membors of the staff, Edwin Hulinger, editor-in-chief for a month, was toastmaster. The following toasts were given: "Yuile Squwinks" Henry Pogues; "Scissors", Prof. S. O. Rice; "Selected"; Dorothy pertenences; Mr. Dillon, and "The Hell-Box" by Professors Brown and Flint.
The place cards were miniature Kansans upon which the menu and toast were placed.
DILLON BELIEVES IN NEWSPAPERS
Topeka Editor Told of the Public and the Press Yesterday
"The newspapers do not get one half the credit from the public that they deserve," said Charles Dillon, managing editor of the Capper farm publications on "Newspapers in the Public." Fraser Chapel yesterday.
"In a public enterprise, a newspaper gives thousands of dollars' worth of space to help fund the university. If it fails, then the public expects them to help with the finances of the enterprise." In connection with this statement, he urged the case of the Kansas City Star after the burning of Convention Hall.
"It if had not been for the efforts of Mr. Nelson in the columns of his paper, this hall would never have been rebuilt. The public does not think of these things in connection with a newspaper. They think that it is an editor's duty to help out with public improvements."
"The public," he continued, "is an unstable witness. Ask different people that saw a thing happen and you would have to worry about the time. Then when the public sees these statements in a paper they criticize it, never stopping to think how quickly news is written nor of the events encountered in editing a paper.
"Papers are improving and editors are doing all they can to help in this. No editor wants false statements in his paper and they try to keep such things out, but they will get into print because they have two essentials, and at the present there are fewer mistakes in papers than there formerly were."

MEN PUT BAN ON NAUGHTY RALLIES
By Unanimous Vote at Special Convocation, Stalwarts Disapprove of Rowdyism
DEAN WALKER EXPLAINS
Said Time Had Come for Drastic Action in Regard to Much Outbreaks
Wheres, there has come about a situation at the University of Kansas in which sundry disorders and breaches of discipline, on part of the student body, have taken place, and
Therefore be it resolved, by the men students of the University of Kansas in convocation assembled:
Wheres, such breaches of discipline have appeared in the form of unauthorized rallies in which there has been an unwalful interruption with classes on the part of the students of this University, and
Wheres, certain students have been called before the University Disciplinary Committee and, upon trial, found guilty of such breach online and dismissed from school for the remainder of the semester.
That we hereby condemn and express our sentiment to be against such disturbances as occurred at the morning of October 27, and
That in the future we shall do all within our power to prevent and suppress such disturbances.
That we concur and endorse the action of the University Senate with regard to the rule protections in similar offenses in the future, and
That we ask and hereby petition the University Senate to reconsider their action in suspend their participation in their participation in the affair, and excise toward these men a material degree of clemency.
The entire men student body of the University unanimously adopted the foregoing resolution at the meeting in Fraser chapel to take action in expansion of the eight students for their participation in the impromptu rally of the morning of October 27. The mass-meeting of the men followed the conference of the Men's Committee of the disciplinary committee late yesterday and it was argued that if a resolution to the effect that the students were opposed to the "naughty rallies" and would do their part in the future to see that such rallies did not recur, definite elementry would be asked disciplinary committee meets with the University Senate tomorrow.
CHANCELLOR'S TALK IMPRESSIVE
CHANCLELLOR'S TALK IMPRESSIVE
The conversation today was opened with students by Chancellor Strong to be filled out dealings in the matter and asked that the students give the faculty the same consideration in the case as they expected in return. The Chancellor explained the true idea of college to the subject that wish no reference to the subject that wish sideration was made, the impression that the Chancellor's talk made was easily seen. A reference to a settling of a similar matter in former years was made. With the admonition to students in a just manner, the Chancellor turned to the meeting over to the students.
Paul Greeyer, president of the student council reviewed the facts without comment and called upon Dean Walker, who with Prof. W. C. Stevens represented the disciplinary committee in the matter.
EXPLAINED COMMITTEE'S ACTION
EXPLAINED COMMITTEE'S ACTION
In explaining the action of the disici-
nary committee Dean Walker said,
"It it not the wish of the committe-
tee in inflicting the punishment
was given to these eight men to
any particular harm to these particu-
lar men, but rather the action came
after we had investigated the case
enough to find that some severe pun-
ishment must follow this lawless rally
We admit that in these men we did
not have the ring-leader nor perhaps
of the rally, but we thought that the
leaders come for some drastic action to do away with
rowdishy and the expulsion was the result."
President Grever then asked for a resolution to the effect that the men of the University should go on a hunger strike, a violation of the Duke Kennedy offered the resolution that was adopted. While the motion to adopt the resolution was still before the house, Professor James Anderson requested questions as to the wording of the feebility's promise of a mitigation if the punishment to the students.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news by standing for it and playing no favorites; to play no favorities; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charismatic; to have more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the University; to give the students of the University.

AN AUDITORIUM AND COMMONS?
With the Board of Administration considering plans for erecting a new machine shop on the campus that will side up to the needs of the University, the question of the proper use for Fowler Hall will come before the students of the University as well as the Board.
Among other things the University needs two things—first, an auditorium large enough to accommodate the entire University for convocations and one that is at the same time suitable for concert courses, musical programs, class palms, commencement exercises and a hundred other uses it might be put to during the course of a year. Second, the University needs a Commons.
The need of a common meeting place is felt more every year on Mount Oread and it is only a matter of a few years until Kansas will fall in line with other universities by recognizing this need. A cafeteria could be run in connection with the Commons, eliminating the chase down the Hill and at the noon hour.
With these two necessities in one building the center of the University would be drawn to one spot. There would be a common meeting place for student and faculty and the criticisms of the lack of a democratic spirit would give way to praise.
With Fowler Hall vacated these two necessities could become realities with little expense. The first floor of the building could easily be converted into a Commons with a dining hall, kitchens and other accommodations near the west end. The second floor with partitions removed is large enough to provide an auditorium large enough to accommodate the University for several years. A stage could be built at the rear which would serve for all purposes.
It is worth a thought.
Just let a fellow spend $5 for a scrumptious new fall hat; and a cold snap comes along and puts it on the shelf with his last summer's straw.
OUR BAND
"There will be speeches and so-and-
so and the band will play—"
"The parade will be headed by the Chancellor and department heads followed by the band—"
"Cherleafer Gedney and the band will be there—"
"The crowds burst into cheers when the band struck up Booia—"
And so it goes. You have seen a hundred such newspaper references to the work of the band during the past season, and the band has always been the secondary consideration in the story.
Now the band is giving a real concert for the students. Those who attended the concert last year know that it will be worth hearing—that the
men under the direction of J. C. M. Ca-
canles make real music.
Mac says the boys are better than ever this year, and the concert planned for Thursday night will give a program that will make K. U. more proud of its band than ever.
No, the dramatic club play, "Under Cover," is not an open air production.
HUMAN, AND NO MORE
When your prof comes stalkin' in with that grade-book in his fi, and the noise begins to lessen as he starts to read your blessin' for cuttin' class the day before. Just take his wicked rakin'. Try to stop your knees from shakin'. Just remember that he's human and no more.
And when... (it's sure to happen)
that he sometimes finds you nappin' with
your senses barely kickin' or
your mind upon some "chicken" who is
keen at Terpsichore, don't blame
him for the mauling that he slips to
you for stalling. Just remember that he's human and no more.
Then when he stops you on the street
with a smile that seems to meet you in
that man-to-manish way till. By George, you're forced to say what you never knew before. "He's a bally decent scout. I'll cut resentment out. I'll remember that he's human, nothing more."
Two faculty men had football men in their classes. One of them provided a special geology hike on Sunday morning to accommodate them. The other flunked them if they missed a quiz while on a football trip.
CYN4CISMS
What a profound effect this "Primes" Week does have upon the habits of our children. "No Dad, I really don't believe that I can spare time to take in that show with you. I would surely like to, but I always get my French at this time." "Yes, that belongs to my roommate. I'm not going out," "No siirsee, I'm off from the women since I came up here. A fellow has to work too hard to fool with them."
BY HIS LIGHT
Scientists have found that many of our large, bright stars are in reality two stars that have fused together. A dull star lost in the great nebular space comes into the radius of a brilliant body, is drawn into its orbit and collides with it. Thus the dull star becomes a reification of the other. We are of the dull stars in the influence. Then we come into the influence of the thoughts of great men, and are drawn further and further toward their radiance until we begin to reflect of their light and are seen of men.
NEVER TROUBLE TROUBLE
Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you, is mighty old, but true. No good is accomplished by fretting and stewing over things that cannot be handled well. Hours. Worry is not thought but a tearing down of nervous tissue. If Jimmy has gone to a movie instead of writing his English theme, it won't do him any good to lie awake and think about it. He had better forget there is such a thing and drop to sleep. Worry has never helped anybody out of a tight place, but it has killed a good many.

BILLY MORGAN COMING TO PROM
His Coming Recalls Description of Visit To Moulin
Rouge
Lieutenant-Governor and Mrs. W. Y. Morgan will be the guests of honor at the Junior Prom on January 5, according to an announcement made this morning by the managers of the party. An invitation was also extended to Governor Arthur Capper, but the latter was unable to accept.
The announcement that Mr. Morgan is to be the guest of honor at the Prom, and that he is to witness the modern dances as performed by students recitales at the student he makes in realism dancing in his "A Jayhawker in Europe." The anecdote, as he tells it, goes something like this:
"The Moulin Rouge is on Mt. Montmartre, and is one of the sights of Paris. When I was a boy I read about a 'gilDED palace of sin', and now I know what that means. boys out west used to speak what they called 'fireplaces', but the Moulin rose not free. I shut my eyes as the dancers loped by until a friend said the next dance would be a quadrille, I once danced quadrilles myself, and I thought there would be a breathing-place. The young poet arranged themselves in a room where we going to dance a Virginia Reel. The music and the quadrille be at. At first it went as smooth as if it were at the Country Club. Then each young lady passed the toe of her partner. She then turned and pointed the toe of her left foot at the ceiling. And their best wonderful display that are put in the store windows at home and marked 'white goods sale,' or 'lingerie.'
"It was dreadfully embarrassing to me, as it must have been to any other Kansas man present, but I braced myself, for I knew the worst was yet to come. I felt like getting right up on my chair and saw all theiares, there are aides, there are departmenters. But I didnt, I have been glad ever since, for they might not have understood English and thought I wanted a partner for the next quadrille."

SOPHOMORES MEET JUNIORS TODAY
Football Swan Song Will Be Sung Today on McCook Field
In spite of the frozen ground ana
the cutting wind, the championship
game of the interclass series will be
played. Field This afterpon at three-thirty.
Last year the seniors won the final game, easily defeating the sophomores with a heavier and more experienced team. This year the juniors have not yet had the opportunity to play against the seniors forfeiting the game Monday.
There is much conjecture as to the outcome of the clash between the heavy juniors and the lighter but faster sophomore aggregation.
In preparation for the final game, Coach Wilson worked his men on formations until dark yesterday afternoon. The main strength of the second-year men depends upon the experienced line and shifty backfield.
Coach McCarty and Lefty Sproul
booked a show at Whelan is booked as head-lineman.
This game closes the football season of nineteen-sixteen. McCook will not be in use until spring, indoor tennis will take the lead in school sports.
"VENI, VIDI' IS TRUE OF PARENTS
Mothers and Fathers Are Looking Over the Hill This Week.
Interest in nice bunches has begun to be displayed by parents of Kansas. The weather may have frozen them into their homes but it didn't stop the student, a senior, received the letter from his dad yesterday:
"We are too busy to get away to come to Lawrence, but we're with you and the University in this Mother's and Fathers' Week. To show our appreciation of the work the University is doing we are hereby enclosing a letter from the university that has incurred expenses on the trip. Use it at your own discretion."

Dad is an invited guest, too.

EXIT STUDENTS TO HOME TOWN
Few Will Linger In Lawrence When Vacation Is Declared Tomorrow
TO BE BUSY WEEK AT HOME
The student is beginning to relax. And why shouldn't he? Doesn't the Christmas vacation begin Friday night at 5:30 p. m.? Of course it does, and for a great many of the students it will be an important event. Those students having a class Friday afternoon will not linger long in this town but will hurry on home where the big Christmas celebration is to take place, where his home-town friend will be glad to see him, and where he can turn over and go back when he hears the alarm clock's staccato ring, early in the morning.
Good Time With Plenty of Sleep and no Quizzes on Student's Program
These last few days at K. U. have been crowded with many events, and up until now the student has had no trouble reading. We are amazed and quizzes have been on the schedule, note-books have been called in, term themes had to be written, and besides, there were the regular morning smokers, concerts, and banquets.
But now with the Christmas recess almost on us, the tired student can see a period of relaxation in store for him, and with this incense he can hit the mantle which will announce that his last class for 1016 is over.
Students of human nature, however,
have it that this period of relaxation
is merely a fantasy and that it will
never accute. They say that the tired
people are so tired of finding
dances, parties, and engagements
scheduled for every night and the
days equally as well filled. After
two weeks of this, the student
would be ready to participate in
a bit of the quiet life and a much
needed rest. "Twas ever thus."
LECTURES ON EMERSON
Charles Woodbury Speaks on Personality of Author
The lecture was not a biography--it was far too interesting for that; it was rather an oral portrait paint-ing, with the great authors as subjects, and entertaining anecdotes as a background.
Charles J. Woodbury portrayed to his audience the characters of Emerson, Thoreau, and Alcott as men, and not as authors, in his lecture on "Emerson With His Friends." It was a reminiscence, the lecture of this genial old friend of Emerson's, pictureing the author as he knew him.
"Himself!" is the title of the lecture Mr. Woodbury will give on Emerson today in Fraser Hall. It will treat detail of the home life of Emerson.
TILL 3 A. M. HE TRIED TO
THAW OUT HIS PIPES
Although the Water Was Off.
Mr. Woodbury told of Emerson, the conventional, precise man of letters; of Thoran, the auteur, unconvincingly; of Cottie, the easy-going, jolly man of the world. Nor were the ladies forgotten, for the two Alcott sisters, Louisa and May, were both described, the first by her mother and the other, a talented painter.
Morpheus was embracing him like an affectionate devil-fish when he came to work on the Kansan this morning.
For Guy Pennock is a careful householder.
Long residence has not accustomed him to the vagaries of the Lawrence Winery.
So when the water failed to run from his trusty hydrant last night he saw visions of plumber's bills as long as Chinese laundry lists.
Whereupon he called for his torch and commenced his midnight vignil. Slowly he made his way along the intricate network of pipes, heating every room in the house. He stepped at 3 a.m. because there were no more pipes to thaw.
This morning he was told that the water supply had been shut off. The
Mrs. Flint's Mother Dies

ACTIVE WORK ON BILL TO BEGIN
Glasco Will Speak On Measures at Kansas Colleges This Year
"The success or failure of the Permanent Income Bill will depend upon the personal work done by students back home to influence their state legislature. The County Club民盟 of the County Club Club, yesterday morning just before he left for Manhattan. "Many of the county clubs are giving banquets for the high school seniors and alumni of the county clubs and are compelled by these clubs, the bills of the work rests with the student body as a whole."
Willard Glasco today is helping the organizations at the Aggie school begin on their work for the bill. He will see that the county clubs at the Northern Michigan campus will also stop off in Topeka for an interview with the governor.
Practically every important argument for the income bill is explained in the new pamphlets which appeared on the Hill this morning. "If every student in the University will read carefully, the information in the bill," said Richard Nieman, who explain the bill to the legislators, a good deal will be accomplished. The progress of the University rests on the success or failure of the bill."
BLACKFRIARS ORGANIZE
New Club Will Present Old English Plays

WOULD PREVENT SMALLPOX SPREAD
Health Authorities Urge Students to Take Vaccination Against Disease
PREVALENT OVER STATE
Heads of State Schools Take Steps to Check Spread to Various Institutions
Prevalence of smallpox throughout the state is responsible for the urgent recommendation on the part of the health committee of the University that all students who have not recently been vaccinated should have it done before leaving for their homes. This recommendation is augmented by another that those who have received the vaccine before leaving for their homes be vaccinated before returning to the University following vacation.
That there is serious danger on epidemics of smallpox in all the schools of the state following the return of students from smallpox in other states, and the officials of the various state schools. The State Normal School at Emporia was first to act, and a communication from president Butcher, of that school, to Registrar George O. Foster, received this morning, first drew the attention of the officials of the state to the seriousness of the matter.
President Butcher said that at Emporia there is a strong probability of those students not inoculated against the disease not being permitted to return to school following the vacation. An effort is being made to secure the vaccination of the students before they leave the school.
The disease is widely spread over the entire state, so the majority of the students who return home for school are in Florida, in the western part of the state, eighty cases of the disease have been reported, and, while this record is not equalled elsewhere, no other state entirely free from the disease.
It was said in the Chancellor's office this morning that it will be impossible for the University of Kansas to take any radical preventative action before the Christmas vacation. However, all students are being requested to be vaccinated before leaving Lawrence, or if this is impossible,

Fathers' and Mothers' Week Will be Made Annual Feature
START A NEW TRADITION
Editors' Week, Merchants' Week,
Corn-Cure Week, Health Week, Baby
Week, Take-It-Back Week, Fair
Week, Farmers' Week—we've had 'em
all, backward and forward, up and
down, in every place and in every
place.—auto rides, banquets, speeches,
and whatnot. But it remained for
the University of Kansas to find the one
new thing,—Mothers' and Fathers'
Week,—and to have it without any
dressing up or extras. It remained
on the floor, Mother and Father
where they belong—at the head of the procession.
Mothers' and Fathers' Week has come and gone. There have been handicaps; cold and snow weather, the time—just before Christmas, and the week immediately after invitations sent out by students and the University. Yet we do not consider that it has been a failure. It was necessary to get the plan to working as soon as possible and it will now be possible to receive a weekly for which the invitations were sent out is closed, *very* week at the university of Kansas is Mothers' and Fathers' Week. The foregoing was the expression of S. O. Rice, of the department of journalism, origi- tive to the first Mothers' and Fathers' Week.
We have put on no special shows for Mother and Father, so they may come at any time, and we will show them the things of interest, our labours, their work and the fifth floor of Frauer (if they're ambitious), the Museum, the valley, the professors, the campus, our work, our play. So, though we may yearly set aside one special week for Mother and Father to visit us, every week at our museum, Kunjung, Miyajima, and Fathers Week. They are always welcome.
TINE ARTS GIVE MUSICALE
Program Included Wide Variety of Selections
The School of Fine Arts gave its annual Christmas program in Fraser Chapel last night. Because of the bad weather, the attendance was less than half and have been at such an excellent program of voice, violin, and organ.
Of the piano numbers, the "Toocata" played by Una Allen and the double number played by Philp Stevens were well executed. The Scheler in C sharp minor was exceptionally well played by Lois Libbey.
Rose Haworth in the aria from "Sapho" showed his interpretation of the story, "pimped," from the "Mossiah" was song by Launchie McPhillen. Leah Stewart gave three numbers, "Ave Maria," or "Cradle Song," and "Tritte Ritere."
The organ solos "Romance" (Parker) by Hazel Lennaugh, and the "Caprice Heroique" by Doris Roebke, were both well received.

AN ECLIPSE OF THE SUN
TO OCCUR ON XMAS EVE
A partial eclipse of the sun at midnight on Christmas eve this year is the last phenomena of the heavens which will occur this year, according to Prof. E. B. Stöuffer of the department of astronomy. The eclipse cannot be observed at any other place because it occurs in a darkened area because that is the only part of the earth which has a midnight sun in December.
The assurance of all astronomers that such an eclipse will occur, although the actual event cannot be observed, shows to what a point of success in work of calculating the position of all heavenly bodies has been carried.
PROM BIDS COME OUT TOMORROW
Juniors May Obtain Tickets After January in Fraser Hall
Invitations for the Junior Prom will be issued tomorrow to all seniors who paid their junior dues last year and to a portion of the members of the faculty. The invitations may be exchanged at any time during Prom week for tickets, at the check stand in Fraser Hall. At this time also, you are buying from committeemen this week as they are exchanged for tickets. Managers Montgomery and Fleeson will announce their office hours later.
"The 1917 Prom promises to eclipse all parties given at the University in the past—and that is no press agent talk, either," said Manager Howard Fleeson this morning. "When you learn that it was even weed that it's hard to remember a party which approaches our Prom in elaborativeness and uniqueness."
RILEY'S ORCHESTRA — A FEATURE
One of the big attractions at the Prom—in fact, the biggest attraction—will be Riley's ten-piece orchestra from the Pompeian Room of the Hotel Baltimore at Kansas City. Riley is well known in the city for his "lazy-time" music, a peculiar talent, remarkably adapted to the modern dances. He will bring his full orchestra to K. U. with him, including "Peewee" Bowers, a star saxanhone player.
There will be a cabaret entertainment during the supper, instead of the farce that had been customary until last year. Mae and Mile Prager, formerly with the "World of Pleasure" company, will stage the cabaret dinner for guests who have served all guests during the evening at quartet tables which will be placed on the first floor of the gym. The caterer has not yet been chosen.
UNIQUE DECORATIONS
The decorations will be unique. Purple and white will be the colors used; and the managers plan on getting some wonderful effects through the use of three lights of immense candle-power and six-foot reflectors. Redwood trees will be brought from Oregon to Arizona for them in the walls. Programs and other features are of real "class," according to the managers.
Tickets for the Prom, placed on sale yesterday, sold rapidly, and a record crowd is expected. Admission is $3.50 a person, or $7 a couple.
Tickets may be purchased from any of the following: Warren Wattles, Frank Farley, Rudolph Uhrlaub, John Fogarty, Ted Richter, Dennis Dennis, Rusty Friend, Frank Fratcher, Brict Chandler, Ennis White Walker, Walter Haverkorst, and the managers. Howard Fleeson and Harry Montgomery.
TALKS ON RADE PAPERS
Dillon Speaks to Professional Departments
"Science needs a middle-man to carry thousands of necessary truths to the layman," said Charles Dillon before a representative audience from the various professional departments at the University in Snow Hall yesterday.
Mr. Dillon, who is managing editor of the Capper Farm publications of Topeka, told of many of his own personal experience in the writing of the special article for the trade paper. He also wrote a representation that he had drawn from various professional magazines and pointed out the simplicity of expression and the lucid style of the writers. "The editor of the trade paper doesn't want ponderous latinized phrases. He wants common every-day words that the public can read and understand," he explained in the construction in the mechanics of the manuscript and the actual preparation of the special article for submission to

NEBRASKA WINS ANNUAL DEBATE
Interest in Meeting Yesterday Rivalled That of Athletic Contests
LARGE CROWD ATTENDED
One
Kanssens Argued Well and Decei-
son Was a Very Close
Kansas fell before Nebraska in the Lawrence end of the dual debate with Nebraska, yesterday afternoon in Shreveport, Ark. It was a decision. The result was not an amount higher than last night until the contest had started in Lincoln. Students of the university were interested in the deposition, Crow turned out to head the speakers.
The Kansas team composed of Edwin Price, George Brown, and Harold Mattoon upheld the affirmative of the question, "Resolved: That submarine warfare upon commerce, as now conceived, is incompatible with the rights of man and the law of nations in regard to the enemies." The Lincoln debaters were: Robert B. Waring, C. Ivan Winslow, and E. Everett Carr.
The salient points in the affirmative's attack on the present submarine warfare were that merchant ships could be sent to a prize court, and that sufficient provision was not made for the safety of those on board. Kansas gave specific cases such as the Arabic submarines had violated these laws.
From behind a fort of books the Nebraska team argued that the unprecedented circumstances in this war called for an abatement of the rigor of the law. That as it was physically impossible for a submarine to conduct a captured merchantman into port to recapture by the enemy. The judge refused to permit afteron's argument were: Mr. Francis Wilson, United States District Attorney; Mr. Henry McCune, attorney-at-law, and Prof. E. M. Bainter, principal of the Polytechnic high school, of Kansas City.

A special violin solo by Miss Hopkins, a saxophone quintet, together with a variety of popular and classical music make up the program.

Student enterprise tickets will admit to the concert.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University, by teaching them more than merely printing the news by standing for the sake of the University, and by being to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be responsible; to be wiser heeds; in all, to serve to the students of the University.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY
NEW YEAR!
The Kansan wishes its readers a very merry Christmas.
So far as this paper is concerned, the old year is spent. The next time the Kansan talks to its readers, a new cipher will be in the date line.
But for the readers, the best part of the year—that part which makes the months of hurry and worry, ups and downs, triumphs and defeats, worth while—is still to come.
The Yankee farmer stands hours and hours over steaming sap pans, boiling, boiling—all for a little residue of maple sugar. And the delicacy of the product's flavor makes him feel well repaid for his labors. Even so, the joys of Christmas cause us to forget what the year has cost in disappointments.
A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year—this sincerely from the Kansan.
IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
Students attending classes just to keep warm are too often finding their purpose defeated by the professor who backs up against the register and requests the men in the back seats to open the windows and let in a little fresh air.
The men of the University have met and expressed their sentiments as a body, and their deliberations have proved that they can meet and express their opinions without giving the spirit of the "howling mob" or of a bunch of school children.
The results of their action at the time will probably be rewarded as much for the character of the meeting and the orderly manner in which it was conducted as for the action so nearly unanimously taken. There was University spirit in abundance at this meeting, and it was the spirit that if perpetuated, will make the University of Kansas an even greater institution than it is.
So with one success upon which to base our convictions, why not a mass meeting for men, one for women, and one for both men and women at least once each semester? Every day there are matters of students interests which arise upon which student sentiment should be expressed, and many of them are of vital importance. Some matters concern only the men, some only the women, but some concern both men and women.
The spirit of the rally is hardly that of the deliberative body. The school ballot has not proven itself representative of University sentiment. For example—in the Men's Student Council election last spring, 737 votes out of a possible 1639 were cast. But at yesterday's mass meeting, 1500 of the 1729 men now enrolled in the University were present—a much larger proportion than
cotted for president of the Men's Student Council in the spring election. That alone should speak a final word for the mass meeting.
One more parting shot—don't forget to work for the Permanent Income Bill during the holidays. And remember, it is the "Permanent Income Bill" not the "Mill Tax."
IF I WERE A KING!
A long time ago, the story goes, there was a king who was very unhappy. He thought he would give anything to exchange places with his page, who seemed to live such a free and happy life. The little page, on whom he would be more wonderful than to be king of the land. So one day they did exchange places. But they were unhappy than ever before, because they were out of harmony with their environment. There are many people just like this in our minds—always seeking the "other fellow." So dissatisfied are they with their own lot in life that they can live only in expectation of what may come their way. Then at last the chance does come, and happiness is at hand? But as is said, anticipation is greater than fear, and then they were before. Yet it is now too late to turn back. "Failure is oftentimes the swapping of what we have for what we want."
Wanted: A fitting substitute for "sephing," the word applied to various autumn breezes, but which can be used when looking at the present gusts on Mount Oread.

A GOOD FELLOW
A GOOD FELLOW Editor the Kansan:
Charity, generosity and unselflessness are admirable traits in any person. At this particular season of the year, everyone should try to do something to help the unfortunate ones, who look upon Christmas time as that part of the year that brings them to cold, hunger and poverty. We, who care for others, want to help that even small offerings, in the way of food, fuel or clothing, given in the proper spirit, brings to the needy poor.
Mrs. J. L. Newhouse, known to the students as the lady who has piloted many of them through the intricate steps of the waltz and Castaway walk at night dancing schools takes a large per cent of the receipts brought in by that profession and buys candy, fruit and toys for eighteen youngsters every Christmas as well as supplying clothing. Mrs. Newhouse considers it a blessing to be able to make this money and as she now has no children of her own, she willingly spends fifty per cent of her yearly earnings makes him think is the essence of benevolence. "Give Credit Where Credit is Due."
Oscar S. Major, 17.
CHARACTER AND REPUTATION
There is a difference between character and reputation. Character is what a man is; reputation is what he is thought to be. Men of good character are generally men of good reputation, and are often clowning the case as the motives and actions of some or all of men are sometimes misunderstood and misrepresented. But it is important above everything else that we be right and do right, whether our motives and actions are properly under control, and whether we can be so important to any man as the formation and possession of a good character—Edmund Burke.

Manager Lovett added that if football players drew the salaries of diamond stars there would be no football.
"Football is more expensive than a private yacht or a polo string," says Manager Lovett of the Penn eleventh. He has figured out that it costs approximately $52.55 per player before the kickoff in the opening game of the season. Seven hundred pairs of shoes and kickbacks of the most expensive footballs, skis, and several hundred footballs and required to equin a team.
It seems peculiar to have to remind University students that they should attend lectures. Men who have entered a University are presumed to be able to look after themselves and to take full advantage of the opportunities which attendance at a college provides, but not to conceive idea of what prompts a man to enter any institution of learning is that he desires to secure an education, a training which will enable him to take his place in the world of men when he graduates. The trouble is that this idea is not always followed out, but is often laid aside in order that the idea "may be had, and lectures interfere so much with a sleep in the morning, or a show in the afternoon.
How many men fail every session because they stay away from lectures? How many important points are missed by the student who fails to attend lecture or whose students lay the foundations for habits which will follow them into after life and be the cause of their non-success in their chosen sphere of activity? Even if one does not take a note at a lecture, he learns and fails to remember it, and while he may not remember all that is said, he will carry away with him at least some of the more striking points brought out by the lecturer. After all is said and done we can purchase copies of notes taken by the lecturer and have been at the lecture to hear the explanation of the notes we understand the principles. Attendance is the thing. The average student who goes to every lecture and pays attention practically any, outside work, although we hasten to assure you that we are not recommending such a
Certainly we admit that some lectures are dull and dry and uninteresting. We know that some professors make an entertaining subject dull, and others make a dry one interesting. We know nothing at all of their lectures, but read in a monotonic tone notes that are begrimed with the dust of ages, having been written years before. Nevertheless all that does not give you the privilege to "cut" a lectures or a course of lectures. It is, to use a much abused expression, "the principle of the thing" which we object to.
course of action. The Dean of any Faculty will tell you that the blank spaces after a student's name on the exam board are filled with information when his average is rather shallow.

SOPHS WIN GAME AND CHAMPIONSHIP
Juniors, Fighting Bitterly, Drop Final Game in Class Series Yesterday, 7 to 9
Playing fast and heady football, the sophomores won the interclass championship by defeating the juniors yesterday afternoon on McCook Field. 9 to 7. The sophomores clear a lead in the first half, but the juniors came back in the last half of the game and for a time played the sophomores off their feet. The heady playing of Marquis, the sophomore quarter, and the tandem play of the juniors in line were the features of the game.
The first sophomore score came early in the second quarter as a result of a fifteen-yard return of a junior punt by Marquis after the sophomores had carried the ball to the junior four-yard line. Marquis kicked a field goal from the twenty-yard line. The sophomore touchdown came a few minutes later when Marquis scored on a broken field, carrying the ball to the junior seventeen-yard line. Three line bucks and then a wide end run of twelve yards by Casey carried the ball over. Casey failed to kick goal.
The juniors came back strong in the last half and scored a touchdown in the third quarter, passing sixteen passes through the line from a tandem formation by Shelley, Hilton, and Frank, and an eighteen-yard pass, Frank to Fleeson, which took the ball to the four-yard line. Frank to the ball across and Cobb kicked goal.
Cobb, Marquis, and Casey showed ability as kickers. The entire sophomore backfield played in a fine fashion. The brilliant thirty-yard run by Marquis was made possible by the good interference of Dunkley. The goalkeeper was excellent and Zierlegt was excellent, while Frank was the best ground gainer for the juniors. Hite, Wilbur, and G. Harte did well in the soph line.
Expensive Grinder Installed
A large universal grinder has been bought for the School of Engineering and is now being installed on the first floor of Fowler Shops. It is a large complex piece of machinery costing $1000.
This machine, which takes the place of an old one of smaller design, is used in sharpening the tools which are used in iron tungsten knives. The quickly dull tools, it is expected that the grinder will pay for itself in a short time.
The establishment of military training for Indiana University students has been found impracticable this semester and the probability is that it will not be established before next year.
TO TALK ON ADVERTISING
IN MERCHANTS' COURSE
"Newspaper Advertising" "Advertising Schemes and Selling Plans",
"Advertising Sales and Specials"
and "Advertising Values" are the subjects announced for a series of lectures to be given by A. E. Edgar, author of the book to Advertise Rotary clubs during its shanty' Short Course in February.
"Many persons beside the merchants, and especially the classes in journalism," said F. R. Hamilton, director of the EXTERNET and arranging the Short Course, "will be interested in these lectures."
PLANS TO GET TAFT HERE FAIL
Ex-President Will Pass Through Lawrence But Cannot
Stop
William H. Taft, president of the League to Enforce Peace and former president of the United States will not speak before the University body as was announced recently in a Kansas City paper. This statement was made by Chancellor Frank Strong this morning.
Every possible effort was made to bring the ex-president here and arrangements could not be made. Mr. Taft will speak in St. Louis Thursday night, but on account of the small chance of his making a living during a rainfall in Kansas City the stop at Lawrence had to be given up.
Even if the Taft party could have visited the University the stop would have been very short as the peace in Topeka began to be in Topeka again Friday noon.
"Mr. Taft will be in this section of the country again this winter on the peace mission," said Chancellor Strong, "and it is probable that the ex-president will speak to the students at a later date."
Revises Manuscript
Prof. John Ise, of the department of economics, has completed the revision of his manuscript for a book on the "United States Forestry Policy". The manuscript is an expansion of his doctor's thesis at Harvard and will be published in place in the David Wells contet. Professor Ise may arrange to have the work published in the Harvard Economic Studies.
George Holsinger, a former K. U. student, was elected vice-president of the State Horiznticultural Society at the Tampa last week that society in Topeka last week.

TRACKMEN WORK BEFORE HOLIDAYS
Relay Squad Practicing on Indoor Track—Good Material Out
TEAM'S PROSPECTS GOOD
Many Contestants for Every Event This Year—Kansas Strong in Distances
Work on the indoor relay team has been under way for the past week although the greater part of the indoor practice will not start until after the Christmas holidays. Rodkey, Dillen and Cohen appear to be the most likely candidates on the squad at the present. Practically every year the indoor meet between Missouri and Kansas is decided by the relay and according to Rodkey, this event will probably decide the meet again this year.
"All men expecting to do indoor track work should get used to the short indoor track in Robinson gymnasium as soon as possible. Possible ways to use it always takes a certain length of time to get used to the indoor track and it will mean an early start for any man to get some work he leaves for his holidays."
The sprints will be further strengthened by O'Leary, who ran in some of the shorter dashes last spring. The team's best run was vault but this will again be one of Kansas' strongest points if Pattinson returns to school. Pattinson broke the vault record last year at the meet with a leap of 11 (fect $8\frac{1}{4}$ inches.
All indications point to a strong team this year with the addition of several star freshmen to the Varsity squad, and the loss of only one weight lifter. Fiske, a middle distance man; Elliott, Campbell, all middle distance men. Elliott is not in school this year but Winn, Seward, Casey, and Cress are good men to run the hurdles. Woodson, Small, and Small are handy with the weights.
The middle and long distances will be the best part of the team the coming season with Rookey, Stateler, Groene, O'Leary, and Howland, all veterans back this year, and Dillon, Couchman, Murphy, and Rinker of the new men trying to place. The team will be one of K.U.'s strongest events. Trewecke, Freewake, Grutzmacher, and Dillon will handle the jumps. Dillon will make a fine team mate of Grutzmacher in the broad jump.
WOULD A WOMAN GO TO
LIBRARY FOR A DATE?
No, George, it ain't right.
Two women with eyes alert entered the library last night. After seating themselves at a central table where they could obtain a full view of the large reading room, they cast their eyes about in search of some person missing. Occasionally one of them would ask, "Have you seen him?"
Possibly the girls came to the library to study. They carried several books, but the books were to be second choice. They were resorted to only after a careful scrutiny of the room had failed to discover "him."
The books apparently lacked interest, excitement, or something. Soon the eyes of the most interested girl were roving again. She saw him. Either wireless or her "come hither" expression brought him scurrying to her, with a question, "Are you ready to go?"
Who goes to the library for dates-
the men or women?

These Ideas Are Practical
Following are a few Christmas suggestions compiled by Charles Sweet, c16, present city editor of the Iola Register. They are a continuation of the suggestions turned in by the Spug Club, a society for the prevention of buying of useless Christmas gifts—A machine gun, a U-boat, a skibber, a fresh egg, an aseptic, three shares of preserved stock in a potato, an oil of Wilson's notes to Kaiser Bill, a cancelled promissory note, a "tank" a certificate of deposit for three grains of corn and two lima beans.

JAPANESE STUDIES CHEMISTRY
OF FOOD in K.U. LABORATORIES
Shin-ichi Takaki, of Tokyo, Japan, has written to Prof. E. H. S. Bailey asking advice about coming to the University next semester to study food chemistry, food analysis and inspection, and calorific value of food.
Takaki is a graduate of Bussy Institute, and has studied at Wesleyan University. He read Professor Bailey's "Source Chemistry, and Use of Food Products," which so impressed him that, having in his own leisure time, he wished to spend them, if practical, in studying at the University. Professor Bailey has advised him to come.
WILL SANTA VISIT ALL?
Woe Be Unto The Santa Atheists
This Year
In an O. Henry sense of the word, we grown-ups are all atheists at Christmas time. For O. Henry says of a man: "He's an atheist. He don't believe in Santy Claus." However, he doesn't believe any body but certainly are not iconoclasts. None of us endeavor to disillusion those who yet believe firmly in that fat, merry, generous old divinity. Indeed, is it not because we remember what extra food we eat? And that we try to keep all little believers still illusioned?
Nearly every organization on the Hill now is doing something in the interests of Santa Claus. Many are co-operating with the social service committee of the W. Y. C. A. to give the North Lawrence youngsters at the Friendship Club a real Christmas party with a real Christmas tree and quantities of Santa Clauses toys. Besides this, old clothing is sold to children and members to be sold in a rummage sale at Social Service Hall just before Christmas. The proceeds are to help equip a Free Hospital in North Lawrence.
For the story-telling hours at Friendship Hall, the story-telling girls are polishing up exciting tales to prove further what a wonderful
spirit Santa Claus is. Sororites have answered the pleas of the Salvation Army or are packing Christmas baskets for homes full of Santa enthusiasts. And surely the Chief Good Fellow this year is an old guarry that "no child in confinement shall waken Christmas morning confronted with an empty stocking."
So engrossed does one get pretending, with the youngsters, that Santa Claus is actually coming, that he begins to lose his atheistic doctrines and to wonder if, after all, she's wrong and he wrong. Maybe Santa won't come down the chimneys of older people, but surely he'll call some way — in spirit at least.
Praises Western Papers
"The Chicago papers in my estimation hold their place with the New York or any eastern papers," said Charles Dillon, managing editor of the Capper farm publications, in address Professor Evans's Company Compass magazine yesterday. Mr. Dillon also spoke highly of the Kansas City Star and Times.

PRESENT LETTERS AT BIG SMOKER
Speakers Praise Team at Football Mixer—Small Crowd and Few Speeches
The annual football amoker in F A. U. Hall last night in honor of the 1918 football team was attended by a crowd and crowd in spite of the cold weather.
A short program was carried out including talks by Manager W. O. Hamilton, Chancellor Strong, Coach Bean Olertz and Maldeville, a freshman at the Maplewood academy made a short talk on the possibilities for next year. Potty Clark was also billed to talk but he was out of town, Captain Lindsay, all-village half, was on the program and did provide a driver; show up until late in the evening. Uncle Jimmy was there and after a short talk presented letters to the football cross country teams. It was while this part of the game that out the mod's Lindsay and for his 1916 football "K"
appeared for his 1914 football "K" Uncle Jimmy, however, refused to give it to him until he had made the talk that was expected of him. From the predictions last night next season looks like a good one.
A three round bout between Youngs Murphy and Butler, his sparring partner.
A smoking set was presented to Coach Leon McCarty by the freshman squad for his efficient work with that team this fall.
MAKE PLANS FOR MERCHANTS WEEK
Will Make Program and Entertainment More Elaborate This Year
The program For the Merchants Short Course, to be held in February under the direction of the University Extension Division, is practically complete. "A few more lecturers are yet to be secured," said F. R. Hamilton, director of the Extension Division.
Besides the lectures and talks on the business subjects naturally to be expected on such an occasion, many new features are being added for the convenience and entertainment of the University. These will be provided by different departments of the University. A noon-day luncheon for the merchants will be served on the Hill daily during the meeting, followed, for purposes of promoting sociability and providing fifteen minute address each day.
the "increased attendance at these meetings," said Mr. Hamilton, "and the large number of merchants who return annually clearly indicates that the retailers have found these Short Courses to be of considerable value. The annual rate in past three years makes it possible for an even better program to be offered next February than has been offered in preceding years."
Concerts will be given by the faculty members of the School of Fire Arts and by the Glee Club. The University Orchestra and the University Band will also contribute to the entertainment. Prof. Arthur MacMurray of the department of public speaking will give a program of readings, and the Dramatic Club will present a repertoire Chamber of Commerce will give a banquet to the merchants at the F. A. U. Hall on Thursday night, February 8. Films will be shown for purposes of instruction and entertainment. A film entitled, "The Trials of the Storekeeper," is among these.
PRACTISE ON HOLIDAYS
Basket Tossers Will Hunt Goal Instead of Rabbits Christmas
Basketball practice has suffered this week on account of quizzes and social events. The interclass football series engaged several players, some as candidates and others as coaches for the teams.
Throughout the holidays those of the aquafish who remain will practice regularly. All the men are expected to report immediately after Christa fancy dress party. Only members of the active chapter were present.
The first scheduled game, Washburn Jan. 10, is expected to be little more than a practice affair, although Dr. Kennedy may unsecure a surprise victory over the Kansas two days later, Jan. 12. Phog Allen will bring his aggregation from Warensburg to put the varity five next to some of the old style Kansas football players. Allen brothers were the mainstays of the Kansas athletic supporters.
The first series of conference games with Ames, Jan. 18 and 19, will prove the mettle of the Kansas squad. The second series of game est on the schedule as Ames loses only two men from the squad of last year.
PROTEST GERMAN ACTION

MORE PANORAMA BY USE OF PAINT
Prof. Hekking to Paint Scenic Background in Dyche Museum
Museum
The first floor of Dyche Museum is to have a scenic background, painted by W. M. Hekking, associate professor of drawing and painting at the University of Kansas, to carry the panorama idea into the distance. Professor Hekking will begin on the south wall of the museum, squirrels, and opossums are placed in a naturalistic fall setting of brown grasses, fallen leaves, and rocks. He has made several trips into the country near here with C. D. Bunker, curator of Dyche Museum, to make color sketches of rocky cliffs and fall set preliminary to the final large perspective on the walls of the museum.
Under Mr. Bunker's direction, workers have been busy for several weeks preparing the walls. Canvas was hung over the plaster and a coat of filler applied to it. With this finish the walls were painted. Mr. Hekking will begin work just as soon as the paints arrive.
The improvement the scenic background will make to the panorama is quite evident to any one who has ever seen those bleak, bare, grey walls rising perpendicularly above the panorama which shows in its perfection the naturalistic setting the twenty years of work required to make it.
Professor Hekkening's close acquaintance with the northern's and Canadian woods, where he was raised and of which he has many sketches, will aid him in preparing the perspective for the north side of the building. Here are the moose, the polar bears, and other animals native to the North.
Mr. Hekking received his bachelor of painting degree from the University of Syracuse, where he was associate professor. He also has been conceived with the departments of fine arts in James Milikin University and the University of St. Louis and now is secretary and treasurer of the College Art Association of America.

Time= 5:00 P. M. Friday A. D.
1912
Scene—Barren class room in Old North College.
Act 1. Four and twenty fine arts are huddled together in a dark and glomy room listening fearfully to weird music? No, only rats putting on a track meet between the mouldering walls. But is not this enough to strike terror to faint hearts?
Finally one brave spirit finds a match, from whence no man can tell, and lights the gas, yes all three of them are burning jets. Blaze forth, their mellow rays.
What's this—a Professor going to give a spread? In wonderment the fine arts forgot to tremble. Deliberately the modern Sir Gallehad makes another trip to the box, and the painter brings him over to be vanish, for he brings forth—not pink tea and Nabiscoes but tallow candles. Fixing these upon the plates he lights them and distributes them about the room. Then turning to the class, he remarks, "We will now proceed with the Ensemble Vivendi, you may meet. Somebody is always taking the joy out of life.
Footfalls are heard in the hall. They come nearer. The door is flung open and in walks Professor Nevin with a large dry-goods box. He sets the box down, tears off the cover it produces a dozen or more paper plates.
Ladies desiring to make a purchase of Christmas cigars, smoking sets, stands, ash trays, or men's pocket books are especially invited to make them here. Every courtesy will be shown by our clerks and we shall also be glad to assist you in making a selection. Carroll's—Adv.

BY THE WAY
How do people go to concerts? To have a date? Even so. Because some one else cannot use his ticket? Also probable. Because it is the thing to do? Perhaps some go because they can't escape. Students students because they can't escape. Speaking of fine arts, one of the students of the f. a., who is the wife of a faculty member spent a glorious hour and a half crochetting at the last concert. But Christmas is approaching and the poor thing could not help herself.

Organized for the Prevention of Useless Buying at Christmas
Are you a member of the Spur Society? If you are not, it is just because you know nothing about it. The Spur organization affords those who are members more satisfaction and enjoyment at Christmas time in both giving and receiving presents. The Spur organization for the Prevention of Useless Giving.
No one likes to get a funny little gift that has no earthly use except to be put away in a box and hauled out the next Christmas to pass on to some friend whom you had forgotten until he gave you something. If you are going to give at all, put a liddle thought behind the opening, and both sides will get will will get more fun out of it. It is probably due to ignorance of the realy useful things that one may buy, that such mistakes are made.
Now, many students may want to do their Christmas shopping, for friends and family, before they leave town. They can better opportunity along this line than the smaller town from which they might spring. So here is a partial list of really useful things that they might have less than $5 right here in Lawrence.
Soft woolly bathrobes in sombre and brilliant hues are fine for father and brother. Along this line, smoke and lounging robes are also very good.
If your sister is young and the least bit frivolous, a pair of pink or white silk teddies would tickle her to death. By the just as fastidious a silk shirt or a black coat de-chipper muffler would be gladly received.
A very acceptable gift for a middle-aged or just under middle-aged man is a good madras shirt, with ties and handkerchiefs to match and a box of tissues. A man, your age or old, ever had too many ties, shirts, handkerchiefs, or hose.
Now, maybe you cannot afford to get mother that whole set of spoons that she wants, but did you ever think that you might get her three or four of them for a starter, and then you may add to them any time you are able, and she may add to them when ever she wishes? This can be done the kind of silverware at the jewelry stores of Lawrence. Mother might also like some comfy and warm bedroom slippers, or a pretty silk waist.
Stationery is always good. Especially as it seems to be an unwritten law that a man should give a girl who is hardly more than an acquaintance, nothing which she can keep to remember him by. So now men have fallen back on flowers, candy, and stationery. Good books, however, are acceptable at any time by anybody from any one.
All these things may be gotten in stores in Lawrence, and the clerks are more than glad to help you make an appropriate choice. So ask them, and with a little thought you will become a staunch member of the Spugs.
TUMBLERS ARE AT WORK
Kansas Team to Compete With Aggies in Gymnastic Meet
The tumbling team of the department of physical education, which will compete with the Kansas Aggie team some time after the Christmas holidays, is about to twelve or fifteen men have been reporting for practice at 4:30 each Tuesday and Thursday evening. Many of them have had previous tumbling experience before entering the University of Missouri; players are now free to take up this sport, the tumbling team will be strengthened.
Aside from the hip, the head and hand spring, rolls, jumps, and dives from the spring board, and pyramid work, many new and unique features are being worked out under the training of Coach Charles B. Harrison. After a few weeks fun, the men will begin their work with partners and then present the finished work of the professional tumbler. This team will compete in the state school gymnastic meet at Emporia, as well as take part in the annual exhibition of the department of physical education in the spring.

JUPITER, BIGGEST STAR,
LOOKS FOR YOU NIGHTLY
The big, bright star that can now be seen in the east about 35 degrees above the horizon before any other appears is Jupiter, according to Prof. E. B. Stouffer of the department of astronomy. This is the brightest one of the planets, but it is 90,000 miles in diameter—nearly eleven times that of the earth. If all the other planets could be made into one, Jupiter would still be one and one-half times larger. It would take less than three planets the size of Jupiter to fill up the space between them. There are 480,000,000 miles from the sun and makes only one revolution around Old Sol in twelve years.
With a three inch telescope, Jupiter and four of its nine satellite or moons can be seen. The four satellites, all larger than the earth's moon, appear to be orbiting around them they are in a straight line. As the satellites are close to Jupiter and it is so large, eclipses are frequent there, often two or three occurring at once. Seen through a telescope the eclipse may be small, black speck across the planet.
Jupiter is so large that it has not cooled off and is still in a molten or gaseous condition.
RANKS THIRD IN FLIES
Museum Now Has 350,000 Specimens
The University Museum now ranks third in the United States with respect to number of types of files in its collection. This is a distinction, considering the many advantages of larger institutions.
The Museum now has about 350,000 specimens of flies which may be classified under five hundred different types. This collection was begun in 1870 by Prof. F. H. Snow and has been growing steadily ever since. His first collection contained about five hundred specimens.
The work for the past three years has been carried on by R. H. Beamer, assistant curator of the entomological museum. He has spent the past three years making a systematic survey of each county and township in the southern part of the state. Such a survey has now been made in sixty-three counties, including all the western and southern parts of the state. With proper care these specimens may be preserved for an indefinite period of time.
Fifty new specimen cases which arrived during the past week were necessary for a part of the specimens which were collected last summer.
Cornell University statistics show that the enrollment for this year is 1128 less than it was at this time last year. The decrease in the College of Agriculture can more than account for this loss, as it alone shows a decrease of 148 from last year's enrollment.

SENDS SKULLS AGED 1206
The University paleontological museum has received two skulls of the extinct Incas Indians from Peru, South America. Wrapped about the skulls were pieces of cloth that were made by the Inca people old. The cloth is well preserved and the hand-woven designs are still plainly marked.
Former Graduate Makes Contribution to Museum
One hundred and seven universities and colleges are represented by the seven hundred and eighty members of the faculty of Cornell University. The foreign universities are represented by the University of Scotland, Ireland, France, Germany, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland and Canada.

The skulls with their wrappings were found in a dry, sandy plain of Peru, where the Incas Indians formerly lived. They were sent to the University by Miss Beryl Lovejoy, a graduate of the University in 1911, who is at the head of a school called Peru. Mrs. Lovejoy became interested in ancient civilization while studying anthropology and paleontology at the University, and has done some collecting since going to South America.
The only way that H. T. Martin, assistant curator in charge of the paleontological museum is able to explain why the cloth has stood the test of hundreds of years is the fact that they found shark wrappings were found is extremely dry. The skulls are a valuable addition to the paleontological museum.
"It is unfair to visitors or guests to hang photographs in the front room or parlor of a home," says William H Hekking, associate professor of drawing in the University of Kansas. "You always have a feeling of strangeness for a few minutes. Naturally, a caller looks about him. If he sees a picture he is familiar with or a picture of something of general interest, he at once feels more at home. When he sees something common with his hosts. But if he sees photographs—remember the time you were ushered into the best room and saw great-great-father of your friend's wife scowling down upon you? That's in a degree the feeling photography takes on, and personal belongings. Keep them in the bedrooms and hang good prints or other pictures in the living room. Make the parlor friendly."
A "Poe Memorial Cup" is to be awarded each year to the Princeton football player who best exemplifies these traits and characteristics: Loyalty and devotion to Princeton's interests, courage, self-control and modesty, perseverance and determination under discouraging conditions, observance of the rules of the game, and fairness toward the opponent.
